Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Bioengineering with Placement Year

Program Overview

Bioengineering is the application of engineering practices and principles to analyse and design new processes, tools and techniques, in order to bridge gaps across biological and healthcare challenges. It applies fundamental engineering principles to the innovation and design of new products and processes, and plays an integral role in global issues where the challenge or solution is biological in origin.

Our Bioengineering degree draws from our expertise across several academic departments and will give you a thorough grounding in engineering systems and applications relevant to bioengineering. You will also gain a sound understanding of human anatomy, physiology and biological functions and the ability to apply your knowledge and skills to bioengineering problems.

The field is rapidly developing, and bioengineers work in a wide variety of sectors globally, developing products and creating technology to help people achieve a better quality of life and break barriers in medical and sporting achievements. Examples include prosthetics and biomaterial implants, software engineering for advanced and 3D medical imaging, image-guided and robot assisted surgery, regenerative medicine against incurable diseases, tissue engineering such as bioengineered skin for wounds, 3D bioprinting, medical device development and new assistive technologies (wearable technology, mobile and e-health).

At Loughborough, our course will take you from the fundamental science and engineering to the cutting-edge of the subject. During your time with us, you will have access to our state-of-the-art experimental labs to complement your lectures. In year three, students will complete a research project on a specific topic of interest supervised by a member of academic staff.

Bioengineering in action Bioengineering approaches can directly impact human health through the development of prosthetics and biomedical implants, such as hip implants. Find out how you can learn the engineering behind these life-enhancing products as part of our course. What's the difference between MEng and BEng?

Additional Information

Careers

There is a growing Bioeconomy, with significant growth observed in Industrial Biotechnology and other areas of Bioengineering, such as Regenerative Medicine and Sports Engineering through the development of new technologies and products.
This new course is taught by a team of international experts and within Loughborough's Engineering Schools where our graduates are keenly sought after by high-profile engineering and industrial biotechnology companies. These companies know from experience that Loughborough graduates are enthusiastic and equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to make a positive contribution to their organisation.

Placement year

Students can elect to undertake a year in industry at the end of the second year. This is usually a salaried position and successful completion (a minimum of 45 weeks) leads to an additional award.
Close links are maintained with tutors at the University through reports and visits to students. The year in industry is optional but it is strongly encouraged because of the many benefits it can provide in developing professional and technical skills. Placement students earn a salary, typically over £16,500 per annum, and many are offered a permanent job with their host company when they graduate.
