In this master’s programme you will explore how novel technological advancements can be used to improve health through the development of innovative diagnostic tools, new treatment strategies, and new knowledge. You will gain the knowledge and skills needed to work as a biomedical engineer in hospitals, academia, or industry. The courses cover a broad range of topics, allowing you to tailor your studies to your own interests.
The aim is to educate engineers who can contribute to improved health and healthcare by developing and translating new technologies into clinical practice. Graduates gain expertise in interdisciplinary collaboration, regulatory frameworks, and the development and implementation processes of medical technology. This provides the specialised competence required for careers in research, established MedTech companies, and innovation-driven start-ups.
The programme is offered by LTH, Lunds Tekniska Högskola (The Faculty of Engineering at Lund University). LTH has a strong research environment in the field, where the Engineering Health profile area brings together over 200 active researchers and provides a strong foundation for the programme.
