Currently, increasing numbers of engineers are bringing their ingenuity and analytical skills to the healthcare sector. The objective of the Master’s degree programme in biomedical engineering is to ensure that its engineers are capable of meeting the scientific and technological challenges of biomedical engineering in an ever-changing global and European context. Inherently multidisciplinary, this programme is based on both the scientific and technological sector and health sciences field.
Building on students’ existing knowledge of basic science (physics, chemistry, mathematics) and natural science (biology, anatomy, biochemistry and physiology), this Master’s degree programme offers students the opportunity to develop polytechnic knowledge of a wide range of subjects. Degree holders will be able to understand and model living systems and ultimately be able to design analytical or therapeutic tools (for example, developing new biomedical technology).
Degree holders will have fundamental knowledge of the principal fields of biomedical engineering: bioinstrumentation, biomaterials, imaging and medical physics, mathematical modelling, artificial organs and rehabilitation, bioinformatics and biomechanics. Students will have acquired advanced training in one or more of these fields of expertise.
By placing importance on elective courses, students can choose either a polyvalent course of study or one that is more specialised. Fields of particular interest include (1) software development and algorithms for biomedical data; (2) biomaterials (implants, etc.); (3) biomechanics and medical robotics; (4) medical imaging and medical physics; (5) clinical engineering (the engineer’s role in the hospital).
On successful completion of this programme, each student is able to :

On successful completion of this programme, each student is able to :
1. Demonstrate mastery of a solid body of knowledge and skills in basic science and engineering science allowing them to understand and solve biomedical engineering problems (Axis 1).
2.Organise and carry out a procedure in applied engineering related to the development of a product and/or a service that meets a need or solves a particular problem in the field of biomedical engineering (Axis 2).
3.Organise and carry out a research project to understand a physical phenomenon or new problem related to biomedical engineering (Axis 3).
4.Contribute as part of a team to the planning and completion of a project while taking into account its objectives, allocated resources, and constraints (Axis 4).
5.Communicate effectively (speaking or writing in French or a foreign language) with the goal of carrying out assigned projects (Axis 5).
6.Demonstrate rigor, openness and critical and ethical awareness in your work: using the technological and scientific innovations at your disposal validate the socio-technical relevance of a hypothesis or a solution (Axis 6).
