The School offers a four-year undergraduate degree programme in Bioengineering (BIE). Upon graduation, successful students will be awarded direct honours. Bioengineering at NTU starts by asking where graduates will be hired and developed a curriculum that combines both engineering and life science with entrepreneurship as key components quite different from other universities. Bioengineering at NTU is a fusion of multiple disciplines applying engineering principles to solve problems in biology and medicine. Students are introduced to regulatory affairs as early as the first year, exposing them to commercialisation processes and arranging hospital attachments so that they will interact with clinicians to understand medical device implementations and patient care. Many bioengineering graduates work in manufacturing sector. For example, pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical instrument and healthcare supplies. A significant number also works for hospitals, government agencies such as HSA and research institutes like A*Star.
The BIE curriculum blends modern biological principles with advanced engineering methods in electronics, materials, mechanics, biocomputing and informatics to train high standard engineers for biomedical and biotechnology industries as well as healthcare and clinical services. The first three years of the programme covers the core bioengineering subjects to help students to develop a strong foundation in the fundamental principles, build sound practical expertise and engineering judgement. The programme is also integrated with a compulsory semester-long internship to provide students with the opportunity to gain hands-on experiences in applying their engineering knowledge, develop good communication and interpersonal skills, work ethics, and professionalism. In the final year, students are to read Biomedical Project Design & Management, Medical Device Design and Final Year Project, which will better prepare students for the rigorous demands of today’s bioengineering industry.
