Entrance Exam Description

During the selection process we examine the competency of the applicant in two ways:
The faculty decides about the eligibility of the applicant by examining the documents of previous studies (degree, subject, results). This is followed by an entrance exams that evaluate the level of study-language and basic subjects depends on speciality.
The exams can be conducted online. In order to validate the entrant’s person, exams taken remotely are recorded on video, as is the person verification process. The recording is archived for at least five years on University’s grounds and the link to that recording is available in the united base of Ministry of Education of Ukraine.

Program Structure

Semesters 1— Foundations & Biomedical Systems Theory
- Biomedical Systems and Devices Fundamentals — you learn how medical devices, diagnostic and therapeutic systems are built and work (hardware, electronics, sensors, bio‑interfaces).
- Human Physiology & Biology for Engineers — you get knowledge about basic biological and physiological principles, to understand how engineering meets human health needs.
- Materials and Biocompatible Materials — you study materials suitable for medical devices; learn which materials are safe for human use and how to choose them.
- Biomedical Measurements & Instrumentation — you learn how medical instruments measure biological signals and how to design or calibrate them properly.

Semester 2 — Advanced Engineering, Systems Integration & Practical Skills
- Medical Device Design & Development — you study how to design, develop and prototype biomedical devices (e.g. diagnostic equipment, prosthetics, rehabilitation systems).
- Biomedical Electronics / Bio‑instrumentation & Signal Processing — you learn to process biological data (e.g. ECG, EEG), design electronics and software to handle signals and diagnostics.
- Regulation, Safety & Standards in Biomedical Engineering — you study medical‑device certification, safety standards, hygiene, regulation and compliance requirements.
- Biomedical Systems Maintenance & Quality Control — you learn how to maintain, test, repair, and ensure quality of biomedical equipment.

Semester 3 — Specialization & Master’s Thesis / Project
- Research Methods & Project Planning in Biomedical Engineering — you learn how to plan, perform, and document scientific or applied research projects in bioengineering.
- Advanced Biomedical Technologies & Innovations — you explore cutting‑edge fields (e.g. bio‑sensors, rehabilitation tech, medical electronics, biomedical data processing).
- Master’s Thesis / Final Project — you carry out a research or design project: e.g. design a medical device, develop a prototype, analyze biomedical data, or propose improvements to biomedical systems.

Overview

The program teaches you how to design, develop, and manage medical‑ and bio‑engineering systems and devices — bridging engineering, biology, medicine, and technology. You study how biomedical equipment and systems work, how to create and maintain them, and how to apply engineering solutions to medical problems. The program combines theoretical foundations with practical training, preparing you for work in healthcare, medical devices and bioengineering industries. The curriculum follows modern standards, enabling deep specialization in biomedical engineering for research or professional practice.

Career Opportunities

After graduation you can work as a biomedical engineer — designing, testing, or maintaining medical devices, diagnostic or therapeutic equipment, prosthetics, or healthcare‑related technology. You may become a design engineer, tester, or engineer for implementation of new medical technologies or bio‑medical systems. You also can work in medical equipment manufacturing, healthcare technology companies, hospitals or labs — in roles involving maintenance, certification, research, or development of medical devices and bio‑systems. With your training you may also pursue scientific research or managerial roles in biomedical engineering — because the programme aims to prepare engineers capable of research and development in bioengineering.
