The University of Liverpool’s School of Engineering is launching a new Masters in Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering, which will begin in January 2025, and undergraduate courses (BEng and MEng) in Chemical Engineering starting in September 2025.
Delivered by research experts and using state-of-the-art facilities, the new programmes are designed to prepare students to meet the needs demanded by 21st century industry and society.
MSc (Eng) in Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering
This course will provide students with knowledge and experience in biomaterials, tissue engineering and biomechanics alongside materials science and manufacturing.
The programme has a significant focus on research methods and design but also includes industry-led modules on the translation of biomaterials from lab to bedside including regulation, ethics and intellectual property (IP).
It has been developed by internationally recognised research leaders working in the School of Engineering, which has expertise spanning multiple areas including musculoskeletal biomechanics, cardiovascular disease, microfluidics, tissue engineering and antimicrobial biomaterials.
Dr Riaz Akhtar, Director of Postgraduate Taught Studies, said: “This course is designed for students from across the globe who wish to embark on a career in the rapid evolving field of biomaterials and biomedical engineering. Read more
