Master of Engineering Science (Biomedical)

Course Details

This degree provides students with the foundations that will underpin ongoing professional development, preparing graduates for further study or for a career in an engineering related field or in other areas where the range of skills and knowledge acquired is needed or desirable. In addition to being a stand-alone degree, it can also be used as a pathway by graduates without an engineering degree to the University's accredited Master of Engineering (Biomedical) (2CM011) degree. Such a transfer can be done after completing at least one year of study.

Qualification: Master Degree (By Coursework)

Course structure: Students complete eight core topics and eight option topics selected from a range of option topics available. These topics aim to provide students with the opportunity to gain knowledge in computer programming, human physiology, fluid mechanics and electronic circuits. Students who achieve an average grade of credit or higher at the end of Year 1, have the option of enrolling in an alternative second year program that includes an 18 unit Masters thesis and advanced coursework that will facilitate entry to a postgraduate research degree.
