Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering

Tuition is 135,000 AED per year.

Biomedical engineering applies principles from engineering, biology, and medicine to design tools, devices, and systems that improve health care and human health outcomes. Students in this field typically study biomechanics, medical imaging, biomaterials, physiological systems modeling, and the design of medical devices and diagnostic equipment. The discipline blends coursework in electrical and mechanical engineering with biology and physiology, giving graduates the ability to work across the boundary between technical design and clinical application. The Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering at Khalifa University of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi is aimed at engineers and scientists who want to deepen their expertise in areas such as tissue engineering, rehabilitation technology, medical instrumentation, or computational modeling of biological systems. Graduate study in biomedical engineering generally involves a mix of advanced coursework and research, allowing students to specialize in a particular area of the field while building the analytical and laboratory skills needed to develop new medical technologies. Graduates of biomedical engineering programs pursue careers in medical device design and development, hospital biomedical engineering departments, regulatory affairs for health technology, research institutions, and companies that manufacture diagnostic or therapeutic equipment. Some go on to further research or doctoral study, contributing to advances in areas such as prosthetics, imaging technology, or implantable devices. Delivered in English at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi, the program is positioned to serve both regional and international students interested in a field that continues to grow as health systems around the world invest more heavily in medical technology. Biomedical engineering rewards students who enjoy problem-solving at the intersection of hard science and practical, human-centered application, and it typically builds on an undergraduate foundation in engineering, physics, or a related science.
