This exciting new programme will produce engineers capable of designing and developing electronic devices and systems for the medical and healthcare communities. These individuals will become flexible technologists who can work within the health services, hospitals and indigenous and international companies, providing products and services to frontline medical and healthcare providers.

Through this programme, graduates with a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electronic Engineering (or cognate disciplines) will extend their engineering skills and technical knowledge to work in partnership with healthcare clinicians and other medical experts ? thereby acquiring a grounding in the culture, philosophy and language of the healthcare profession. The graduates would be expected to develop strong skills in negotiating the clinical/technology interface.
