Course Aims

The final year project is a group project with 3 to 4 students who undertake a substantive work in one of the four focus areas (see below) of biomedical engineering - under the supervision of an academic staff. The project involves a substantial task requiring the application of knowledge related, to inter-disciplinary areas in engineering and life science. Typically, the students shall initially perform review of related literature, brainstorming, and identify the requirements for problem solving, followed by development of an appropriate methodology to investigate the problem towards accomplishing the given objectives. The project work also includes preparation of a detailed project report and oral presentation. Focus areas:

1. Cell and Tissue Engineering;

2. Biosensing and Health Informatics;

3. Medical Robotics and AI for Health; and

4. Medical Imaging and Instrumentation.
