M.Sc. Biomedical Engineering

Entrance requirement for this M.Sc. Biomedical Engineering study programme is an undergraduate degree from a national or international university – Medicine, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Engineering or in a related study by which the educational requirements can be proven. A change from one university to another university is easier than from a university of applied sciences to a university.

Undergraduate degrees are only acceptable from universities that are accredited by the state, in which the University is located or through officially recognized procedures.

The educational requirements of the undergraduate degrees should include knowledge (90 Credit Points (CP) of the European Credit Transfer System) in the fields of engineering, mathematics / natural sciences with at least the following CP in these four fields:

Mathematics: 20 CP

advanced mathematics; linear algebra (vector analysis and tensor analysis), analysis (differential calculus and integral calculus) numeric methods

Chemistry: 20 CP

advanced chemistry; anorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, physical chemistry

Biology: 20 CP

advanced biology; human cell biology, genetics, microbiology, molecular biology, human physiology, human anatomy

Physics and Engineering Technology: 30 CP

advanced physics; mechanics, electrotechnics, thermodynamics, nuclear physics, solid state physics, static and dynamic

In each field, students need at least 50 % of the mentioned credits.

If one or more subjects have less than 50% of the needed credits, the application will be rejected.

A student can have up to a maximum of 20 missing credits in total and still will be accepted. This means that if 20 credits are missing a total of 4 additional modules must be taken during the master´s degree. This can extend the duration of the programme by 1-2 semesters.

If a student has more than 20 credits missing then the application will be rejected. To fulfill the above-mentioned requirements we advise the students to take the missing modules at their home university in time (best between 3rd -5th bachelor semester).

Be aware that we can only accept your modules if they are successfully passed and certificated from the home university and handed in during the application period.

Please note that you can apply for this programme if you will complete your Bachelor´s degree before October 1st and have enough credits in all four areas by the end of the application period.
