- Description/content
- Both the Universität zu Lübeck and Lübeck University of Applied Sciences welcome students from all over the world who wish to increase their knowledge in biomedical engineering. A primary focus of the studies will be on medical imaging.
The Master's programme in Biomedical Engineering in Lübeck is designed for students who wish to pursue careers in research and development, academia, or industry. The goal of the programme is to educate students in the interdisciplinary fields of engineering and medicine.
Biomedical engineering integrates physical, chemical, mathematical, and computational sciences and engineering principles to study biology, medicine, behaviour, and health. It advances fundamental concepts and develops innovative materials, processes, implants, devices, and informatics approaches for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases as well as for patient rehabilitation and for improving health.
In 2009, both universities founded a joint competence centre for medical technology: https://hanse-innovation-campus.de/de/medizintechnik-tandem (https://hanse-innovation-campus.de/de/medizintechnik-tandem).
