Biomedical engineers create materials, devices and processes for better health outcomes.
Biomedical engineering at the University of Queensland bridges the gap between technology, medicine and biology.
It integrates physical, chemical, mathematical, computational sciences and engineering principles to improve health care.
Biomedical engineers may design, construct and develop health and monitoring devices and computers, implantable devices, diagnostic systems and therapeutic systems, cell and tissue engineering, and pharmaceuticals.
You may also work with models of physiological function and prosthetics and implants.
Depending on your chosen specialisation, you may find employment with hospitals, biotechnology companies, medical equipment manufacturers, research institutes and government health departments.
You'll have to choose an engineering specialisation to study this major first.
The biomedical engineering major is available in the following specialisations:
