The BEng(Hons) Biomedical Engineering course at ARU is designed as a Project Based Learning (PBL) course, with modulesthat are offered in accordance with the advancements in healthcare technologies. The curriculum offered through this course willenable you to gain extensive knowledge in various Engineering approaches to tackle healthcare challenges, with the opportunityto explore Biomedical Engineering research.Through the study of various modules and projects, you will learn the fundamental principles of medical technologies and gain theability to design, develop and deliver new products. The PBL approach enables you to develop a collective set of technical andtransferrable skills such as teamwork, independent research, and an integrated approach to problems, all of which are beneficialfor future employability within the healthcare industry.In the first year, you will develop basic skills essential for a Biomedical Engineer. You will study both traditional engineeringtopics (such as Mathematics, Structural Mechanics, and Electronics) and traditional medical topics (such as Anatomy andPhysiology and Biology). You will also have a Biomedical Engineering-specific module, in which you will explore what it means tobe an engineer in a multidisciplinary field. A Biomedical Engineering expert will come talk to you and share their career path andcareer advice. From the very start of your course, you will be involved in laboratory experiences, learning how to use equipmentcommonly used within Biomedical Engineering.In your second year, you will develop your Bioinstrumentation skills while working on big real-world problems within the ElectronicDesign Project and Robotic Control Design Project. These project modules are Live Briefs – external companies design theseprojects. You will also learn Advanced Engineering Mathematics and Signal and Signal Processing to use Â鶹ԭ´´ theprojects. There is also a Biomedical Engineering-specific module on Biomaterials, which involves many hands-on experimentsin our brand-new Biomedical Engineering laboratory. You'll take one of our Ruskin Modules, too. These give you the opportunityto work with students from different courses to come up with creative solutions to complex problems and key challenges facingsociety. Ruskin Modules are subject to change and availability.In your final year, you will learn about the modelling and analysis of human motion, emphasising experimental data collection viamotion analysis. You will study the advanced medical approach to tissue repair and regeneration as part of the tissueengineering module and gain an understanding and knowledge about the key components that can be utilised to producestructures which can improve damaged tissue or whole organs. You will advance your understanding and application ofelectronics and mechatronics, specifically in automation and control, robotics, and machine learning. Projects such asComputer-Aided Engineering projects will give you the opportunity to work on the design, manufacture, analysis, and testing of asimple component.You’ll also conduct your independent piece of research in a project supervised by one of your lecturers. This is your capstoneassessment and will personalise your degree, and train you to think like an engineer, ready to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world.
