Introduction
The master’s degree program in Biomedical Engineering is an English language international course designed to prepare students to pursue diversified careers in the biomedical engineering field, such as those related to research and development in the medical devices field, to the production and management of health services, technologies, and facilities. In this course, students are asked to improve and deepen their skills in traditional engineering disciplines and to develop more specialized aspects of the biomedical field.
Students are immersed in a lively international environment in which frontal teaching is paralleled by numerous laboratory experiences aimed at developing experimental skills and attain problem-solving, team-working and decision-making skills.
This organization and the use of the English language makes graduates from the Biomedical Engineering degree appealing for the labor market, as shown by the employment rate at one year from graduation, which is 100%.
