- Electrical stimulation of muscles (e.g. for ease motion disabilities or incontinense)
- Interpretation of signals from the body (e.g. EEG and ECG, making a diagnose of brain and heart diseases)
- Motor control (how does the nervous system control muscles)
- Pain research (how does the body react to pain, e.g. muscle pain)
- Decision support systems (e.g. improvement of quality of life for diabetes patients)
- Medical picture analyses (e.g. diagnosis of Alzheimers)
Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
Admission to the Master programme in Biomedical Engineering and Informatics presupposes a Bachelor degree in Biomedical Engineering.
Other specific engineering programmes may also qualify for the Master programme possibly followed by a requirement for supplement courses before the beginning of the 1st semester. These programmes are for instance:
- Electronics engineering
- Computer science
- Mechanical engineering
The supplement courses are anticipated to be Anatomy, physiology, pathology, medical instrumentation/health care organisation, but all applications will be evaluated academically by the Study Board of Health, Tecnology and Sports Science.
English Proficiency: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
