The Master’s Degree Course in Biomedical Engineering (120 Course Credits with mandatory participation) prepares professionals who are capable of fitting into any work sector that applies engineering to Medicine and Biological Science. The program also benefits from collaboration with the University & Private Enterprise Committee, which UCBM established with the specific aim of co-opting the business world in the process of defining/updating course training programs and the technological research/development goals. This close collaboration with private companies translates into a training program that facilitates our new engineering graduates’ incorporation into the workplace.
