3D printing human tissue, AI diagnosis, new implantable devices – the future of healthcare is being built here. Problem solver? Technology lover? Fascinated by the world of medicine? Study biomedical engineering to help healthcare evolve, answer big questions about the human body and its functions and make a difference to people around the world. Digital health, data science, biomaterials, clinical engineering, biomedical devices, tissue engineering… these are just a few of the areas you’ll examine. All of our modules are built with your employability in mind, to reflect the global challenges you’ll face as a future biomedical engineer. **Hub for healthcare innovation** Most of our academic team is based in the School of Engineering and Materials Science, but you’ll benefit from the expertise of Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry too. You’ll meet patients and clinicians, as well as professionals from medical device companies. We’re at the forefront of areas such as predictive modelling, regenerative medicine and medical robotics. Our researchers use 3D printing to make functional human tissue implants, as well as pioneering organ-on-a-chip models for testing new medicines. Others are using machine learning models to predict the risk of preterm birth, or artificial intelligence to help make diagnoses. By becoming part of our community, you’ll discover where you can make a difference.
A Level: AAA | Including Mathematics and one of Physics, Chemistry or Biology Excluded subjects - General Studies and Critical Thinking. Please note: You will also be expected to achieve a Pass grade in the practical endorsement for any of the following A levels - Biology, Chemistry, Physics - if taken with one of the Awarding Bodies in England. | Access to HE Diploma: 33 UCAS points | Access to HE Diploma: 12 UCAS points | Access to HE Diploma | We consider applications from students with the Access to Higher Education Diploma in a Physics and Mathematics based discipline. Entry will normally be to the BEng or BSc. The minimum academic requirement is to achieve 60 credits overall, with 45 credits at Level 3, of which 33 credits must be at Distinction and 12 credits at Merit or higher. Applications are considered on a case by case basis. | GCSE/National 4/National 5 Both GCSE English and Maths at grade C or 4 or an acceptable equivalent will be required. | Extended Project | We consider applications from students offering an EPQ and may make an alternative offer to include three A levels, one grade lower than our usual requirement, along with a specific grade in the EPQ. | International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme: 36 UCAS points | 6,6,6 at HL including Mathematics and one of Physics, Chemistry or Biology
