Option in biomedical engineering

This option is common to most engineering Master’s curricula. It aims to train engineers who can meet future technological challenges in the scientific and technical fields related to biomedical engineering. It will provide students with basic knowledge in various fields of biomedical engineering such as bioinstrumentation, biomaterials, medical imaging, mathematical modelling, artificial organs and rehabilitation, biomechanics. Thanks to a collaboration between the Faculties of applied sciences and medicine, the training aims to give the students an interdisciplinary approach where engineering is applied to the complex and varied biomedical world.
