- Description/content
- The Biomedical Engineering programme focuses on mathematical, numerical and software-based solutions to problems in the fields of medical engineering. To achieve this goal, students learn to handle modelling, simulation, computer mathematics and systems theory. Additionally, they acquire proficiency in sensorics and microcontroller programming.
Students acquire skills in signal and image processing and physiological modelling.
Additionally, students are introduced to the applications, risks and problems presented by medical devices and technical medicine through lectures in the field of artificial organs, membranes and minimally invasive surgery. During the second semester, students get the chance to deepen their knowledge in a research project at the HFU, a cooperating company or hospital which prepares them for their thesis work.
