Welcome to the department of Biomedical Engineering

The department of Biomedical Engineering is recognized for its leading research in chemical biology, regenerative engineering & materials and biomedical imaging & modelling. The scientific excellence of our senior and young upcoming researchers is fostered in their close collaboration within the department as well as (inter)national partnerships. Together we strive to improve healthcare and society as a whole.

Furthermore, the department educates the engineers of the future by offering in-depth engineering courses, project work, hands-on labwork and challenged based learning. The research and support staff together deliver high quality education in biomedical engineering in our bachelor’s and master’s programs, and for our PDEng and PhD candidates.

BioMedical Engineering

The department of BioMedical Engineering (BME) is part of the  CARIM School for Cardiovascular Diseases in Maastricht, the Netherlands.

Our research is aimed at the physiologic description of biological processes, including the fundamental study of phenomena only occuring in living organisms and implementations of known physical principles in, for example, medical science. Fields of specialisation are heart mechanics, vital imaging and ultrasound techniques.

BME teaches the basic principles of physics and hemodynamics to medical students of Maastricht University and contributes to the master's programme of Medical Engineering of the Eindhoven University of Technology.
