As a student of the Master’s in Biomedical Engineering with a specialisation in Bioengineering Technologies, you will be taught by leading professors of various research groups. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to contribute to high-end research yourself. In the second year of your Master’s, for example, when you will write your master’s thesis.
Find out more about the research groups that are related to this specialisation, and the research they are conducting, below:
Nanobiophysics (NBP) is a multidisciplinary research group operating at the interfaces of physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine.
The BIOS Lab-on-a-Chip group (“Miniaturized systems for biomedical and environmental applications”) aims at the research and development of Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) systems.
The expertise of the Advanced Organ Bioengineering & Therapeutics (AOT) group lies within the fields of (bio)artificial organs, targeted therapeutics and biomaterials and regenerative medicine. Amongst others, their research aims to develop bioengineering solutions to assist, mimic or replace failing patient organs and to design and characterise targeted (nano)medicine.
The mission of the department of Developmental BioEngineering (DBE) is to translate the principles of developmental biology into new, technology-based therapeutic strategies for the replacement of lost or worn out tissues in chronic diseases.
The Applied Stem Cell Technologies (AST) group develops technologies with which they design, optimise and characterise stem cells and stem cell-derived tissues, as well as develop and apply organ-on-chip technologies to study the structure and function of the human heart and other organs.

The Biomechanical Engineering group is specialised in the application area of Biomedical Technology, integrating the tools of several engineering disciplines to analyse aspects of human functioning.
The Engineering Fluid dynamics group focuses on Crossing Scales and Bridging Disciplines: Connecting the fundamental Physics of Fluids to engineering and medical applications.
