The Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering MRes provides structured training in this diverse and multidisciplinary field and students may subsequently progress to an MPhil/PhD as part of a Doctoral Training Programme.

The programme covers all forms of ionising and non-ionising radiation commonly used in medicine and applies it to the areas of imaging and treatment. The programme involves Master's-level modules chosen from a wide range offered by the department and a research project. Good performance in the MRes will lead to entry into the second year of the Doctoral Training Programme where the research project is continued.

Students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits.

The programme consists of four optional modules and a research project.

Optional modules

Students choose four optional modules from the following:

  • Ionising Radiation Physics: Interactions and Dosimetry
  • Medical Imaging
  • Clinical Practice
  • Treatment with Ionising Radiation
  • Medical Electronics and Control
  • Bioengineering
  • Optics in Medicine
  • Computing in Medicine
  • Medical Devices and Applications
  • Foundations and Anatomy and Scientific Computing
  • Image Processing
  • Computational Modelling in Biomedical Imaging
  • Programming Foundations for Medical Image Analysis
  • Information Processing in Medical Imaging
  • Image-Directed Analysis and Therapy

Dissertation/report

All students undertake a research project.

A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline from a UK university, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard.
