In your first year (or equivalent) you’ll complete foundation engineering subjects – tailored to students from a non-engineering background. If you’ve completed the Bioengineering Systems major in your bachelor degree, plus the required maths and science subjects, you’ll receive credit for these foundation engineering subjects and start in second year. In the second and third year (or equivalent), you’ll focus on your chosen engineering discipline. As a biomedical engineering student, your focus will be on human systems and the design and operation of devices and processes that can be applied to new medical treatments, instruments and machines. You’ll undertake an industry, design or research project and gain the skills and knowledge to practice as a professional engineer.
