Biomedical Systems Engineering is a unique degree which teaches students to apply a Systems Engineering methodology incorporating concepts from multiple disciplines to the modelling, analysis and intervention of biomedical problems. Biomedical Systems Engineers may apply the principles of electronics to analysis of the body’s own electrical activity and to the measurement and analysis of signals from the body such as medical images. They may also apply the principles of mechanical engineering to the analysis of motion and creation of devices which monitor and support walking. Warwick graduates are particular adept at the modelling, analysis and control of biomedical systems and their interactions.

About this course

As well as traditional Biomedical Engineering topics, Biomedical Systems Engineers will understand that they must incorporate the impact of healthcare implementations on people, processes, information and organisations. This equips them to work on high-level problems facing healthcare..

In your first two years you will study material from across areas of Engineering with opportunities to experience laboratory and design work in all our disciplines. You will undertake a variety of projects including a major individual project in year 3 in which you will demonstrate project management and autonomy in carrying out a significant piece of work.

In your final year, you can choose from a variety of optional modules to give a high-level specialism.

Our graduates have gone on to work for organisations including: Jaguar Land Rover, Barclays Bank, NHS Institute for Innovation, Aston Martin, Deutsche Bank.

Examples of our graduates’ job roles include: Business Systems Analyst, Graduate Civil Engineer, Aerodynamacist, Structural Engineer, Technology trader.

A level: A*AA to include Mathematics and Physics.

What I would highlight: There is not enough place for all the students to live in school's residences. So the priority is definitely not for exchange students who only come for 3 months. Thanks a lot!
What could be improved: Nothing.

Course programme

In your first and for some of year 2 you will be taught the fundamentals of engineering common to all disciplines, which you will build on in later years according to your interests. During year 2 you will specialize in one of the disciplines we offer or choose to continue a broad general approach.

In your first year you will study 9 core modules covering a wide range of theory and practice with a modern foreign language available as an optional extra. The 9 core modules are currently: Dynamics and Thermodynamics, Electrical and Electronic Circuits, Engineering Design, Engineering Mathematics, Introduction to Engineering Business Management, Introduction to Engineering: Professionalism and Practice, Materials for Engineering, Statics and Structures, Systems Modelling, Simulation and Computing

In the second year you will build on your understand in of the multidisciplinary nature of Engineering products studying Dynamics and Fluid Mechanics, Electromechanical System Design, Engineering Mathematics and Technical Computing and Technical Operations Management in term 1. In term 2, Biomedical Systems Engineering students will study Analogue Electronic Design, Systems Engineering Principles, Biomedical and Clinical Engineering and then choose from optional modules: Computer Architecture and Systems, Planar Structures and Mechanisms, Multimedia Technology and Signal Propagation, Starting a Business or Technology in International Development. There is also the opportunity to continue with a Modern Foreign Language or study Introduction to Secondary School Teaching (Physics).

In year three, students undertake a major individual project. The year three modules are currently Systems Modelling and Control, Signal Processing, Biomedical Signals and Systems, Dynamics of Vibration, Quality Systems and Healthcare Technology Engineering Design.

In the final year, current core modules are the Group Project; Biomedical Systems Modelling; Imaging and Sensing in Body and Brain; Biomechanics; Biomedical Signal Processing and Computational Intelligence in Biomedical Engineering. You can then choose from a variety of options: Mathematical and Computer Modelling; Advanced Control; Affective Computing and Power Electronic Converters and Devices.

The modules listed represent choices available to current students. As the subject of engineering and our school continuously evolve, the range of modules available and the content of any individual module may change in future years. Applicants will be informed as soon as changes are approved. Current students will be consulted prior to the changes being approved.
