Major in biomedical engineering

info2m  2019-2020  Louvain-la-Neuve

This major is available only to students who minored in biomedical engineering during their Bachelor’s degree programme. The objective of the biomedical engineering major is to train engineers who are capable of meeting future technological challenges in the scientific and technical fields related to biomedical engineering. This major provides students with basic knowledge about bioinformatics as well as other biomedical engineering fields such as bioinstrumentation, biomaterials, medical imaging, mathematical modelling, artificial organs and rehabilitation and biomechanics. The collaboration between the Louvain School of Management and the School of Medicine provides an interdisciplinary curriculum where engineering is applied to the complex and varied biomedical field.
