MRes Biofluid mechanics at University of Strathclyde

Biofluid mechanics applies engineering, mathematical and physical principles of fluids to problems in biology and medicine, and also in aerospace and robotics. The one-year MRes gives multidisciplinary training in fluid kinematics and dynamics related to biological systems, cardiovascular devices, numerical modelling and CFD, with a longer research project than an MSc.
