Study

Bioengineering’s potential to improve tomorrow’s world has made it one of the fastest growing fields in science and engineering, and number one for job growth prospects. The Department of Bioengineering offers opportunities to study at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Visiting placements

Students interested in doing a visiting placement in the Department should first find a proposed supervisor to agree to host them by viewing the list of academic staff members and contacting the most relevant person to their research area or project. Once the supervisor agrees to host, prospective visitors must apply for the placement online. More information on placement types, how to apply and further guidance can be found at the College's visiting webpages.

The visiting student application process can take up to six weeks. Submitted applications go to Engineering Admissions for initial review before being sent to the Department. Once we receive your application, we will send it to your proposed supervisor for review. The decision on the application must then be approved by the Visiting Student Coordinator before the Department's Admissions team sends it to Engineering Admissions for final processing.
