The Internationally Oriented Studies programme at FH Aachen, Jülich Campus, specialises in teaching students technical abilities and skills as well as soft skills. All modules emphasise that
An emphasis is placed on learning the practical manual skills in our modern laboratories, thus building a good basis for your later professional needs. In higher semesters students work in small groups in professionally-oriented projects where they must plan the project, work together to meet a common goal, and finally present their results in a written report and oral presentation.
The Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering is a modern, flexible programme with an emphasis on teaching professional competence and a methodical approach. Through intensive research in individual areas of expertise, FH Aachen is able to offer students a programme at the cutting edge of science and engineering.
During the first four semesters students gain the tools to become engineers as they learn the mathematical and scientific basics of Biomedical Engineering. In the fourth semester the focus begins on biosystems technology, cardiotechnolgy and medical physics.
In the fifth semester students select a field of specialisation from several areas of specialisation: biophysics, biomechanics, biosensor technolgy, cardiotechnology, medical physics, and medical processing technology.
The first half of the sixth semester is devoted to a practical subject. The Bachelor thesis is the completion of your studies. Graduates may find employment or continue their studies in a Master's degree programme.
