About this course

During your studies, you will take subjects in a variety of disciplines such as physics, mathematics, biochemistry and medical science.

In your first two years, you will study the fundamentals of engineering, physics, mathematics, and the basics of biology, anatomy and physiology. As you progress into third and fourth years, you'll become industry-ready through major design projects that mirror the work of practising biomedical engineers.

You will also have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects and take part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge, a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.

This degree will:

  • help you develop the knowledge and skills essential for a professional career in biomedical engineering.
  • prepare you for employment in the medical technology and biotechnology industries producing assistive technology, implantable devices for rehabilitation applications, lab-on-a-chip diagnostics and biomaterials and other innovative solutions to medical and health problems
  • equip you with skills related to medical, biomedical, biomechanical, medical equipment, medical laboratory, bioinformatics, and other biomedical and health-related industries.
