Overview

Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Biomedical Engineering

Biomedical Engineering is the broad application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and the life sciences. 

UWA's Biomedical Engineering Honours program teaches you the fundamentals to work in diverse fields such as biotechnology, biomedicine, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, healthcare research, and innovation.

Learning to work on advances in biomedical technologies such as new surgical imaging, visualisation and simulation techniques, and developing medical instruments and devices, you’ll be making a real impact on people’s lives.

This major is one of the fastest-growing disciplines in engineering and this is anticipated to continue. 

Biomedical Engineering at UWA prepares you to work in a diverse range of careers, including as a clinical or rehabilitation engineer in a hospital, as a product or design engineer in both established and emerging MedTech companies and/or as a researcher working on cutting-edge technologies. 

In addition, you will develop the relevant skills to work in health technology roles in a range of areas, including in regulatory agencies, patent attorneys and product development companies.

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) offers work-integrated learning (WIL) opportunities where you can:

  • Gain practical hands-on industry relevant experience and skills
  • Bridge the gap between theory and practice
  • Develop employability skills through a science work placement

As part of your studies, you will complete a 12-week practicum and professional-development experience.
