Program Description

Bioengineering encompasses a broad range of knowledge and skills, combining aspects of biology, physics, chemistry, maths and engineering. These are attractive to a wide range of employers, including hospitals, universities, medical device manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, regulatory agencies, research institutes or laboratories.Our programme offers two study pathways – Molecular, Cellular and Tissue Engineering (MCT) or Biomedical Engineering (BME). These pathways enable you to tailor your study according to your interests and aspirations, but do not form part of the official award title of ‘MRes Bioengineering’.As a research-focused course, the bulk of your study (120 credits) is devoted to your research project, which you will begin preparing in the first semester and work on throughout the course under the supervision of an expert in an agreed field of interest. The research project offers an exciting opportunity for you to demonstrate advanced knowledge and writing skills in your chosen research theme, preparing you to pursue a research career or further research study, such as a PhD.Experimental Research Methodology, which is taught across the first two semesters, is designed to equip you with advanced academic study and research skills. You will learn more about research ethics, health and safety issues within a laboratory setting, for example, and how to conduct a literature review, and how to use statistics to analyse data.You will study a further two (MCT) or one (BME) core modules, which are tailored to your pathway. In addition, you will choose one (MCT) or two (BME) optional modules, which you can select to match your chosen pathway. These pathways and optional modules will be selected early on in the course following discussion with your supervisor and course director.The MRes Bioengineering can be studied as either a one-year full-time or two-year part-time course, with start dates in September. The taught modules run over Semesters 1 and 2, with the research project (including write up) running over all three semesters. You will complete 180 credits to obtain the master’s qualification, including the core Project Dissertation (120 credits).
