Bioengineering, MEng (Hons), with industry placement

Bioengineering applies engineering principles to analyse and design innovative products, processes, and tools that address biological and healthcare challenges, playing a key role in global issues. Loughborough's Bioengineering degree integrates expertise from various departments, providing a solid foundation in engineering systems, human anatomy, physiology, and biological functions. Students develop skills to tackle bioengineering problems, with access to state-of-the-art labs and opportunities for research projects in year three. The field is evolving rapidly, with bioengineers contributing to sectors like prosthetics, medical imaging, regenerative medicine, and assistive technologies to enhance quality of life.The MEng and BEng degrees share identical content in the first two years, focusing on theory, application, and practical elements. From the third year, the MEng offers deeper technical studies and an advanced team research project, while the BEng remains more focused. Assessment combines coursework and exams in a roughly 60/40 ratio, with interactive methods including oral and poster presentations to foster skills in entrepreneurship, teamwork, and leadership.
