MEng Medical Engineering at Cardiff University

Group projects with engineering students from other disciplines mirror the dynamic of a professional engineering team and will help you to develop vital skills. UCAS code H1BV.

Faculty: Interdisciplinary content Our links with the Schools of Biosciences, Psychology, Business, and Dentistry, as well as with clinicians in orthopaedics and radiography, ensure your course covers the latest topics across a range of fields. briefcase Industry-led content Our course content is informed by industrial collaboration and delivered by leading academic staff, many of whom are Chartered Engineers or have worked in industry. certificate Professionally accredited course Accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Medical engineers are competent classical engineers who apply engineering principles to the development of medical treatments, applications or diagnostic technologies that can enhance and save lives. They work in fields with medical applications, such as clinical instrumentation and devices, bioengineering, clinical engineering, as well as engineering fields outside of medicine.This accredited course provides the knowledge, skills and hands-on experience you need to become a work-ready medical engineer. You will choose from a range of authentic engineering problems and industry-focused scenarios, to work on both individually and with student engineers from other disciplines. Group work mirrors the relationships of an engineering team and will help you to build professional skills, such as teamwork and communication. Our open access makerspace provides a place for you to design, create and collaborate.You will have the opportunity to engage with professionals from healthcare providers such as the Cardiff and Vale Orthopaedic Centre, and will benefit from links with companies like Biomet, Simpleware and Arthritis Research UK.The MEng degree programme allows you to expand and strengthen your knowledge in medical engineering. You will benefit from advanced learning in design and management and multidisciplinary engineering design projects.
