Course Description

Course Profile

What do we teach?

Second-cycle studies enable deepening and expanding knowledge in the field of biomedical engineering and preparation for third-cycle studies. Within the three specializations offered, students expand their knowledge, among others, in the field of advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, processing large amounts of data thanks to machine learning and artificial intelligence, as well as designing and implementing medical systems, designing implants for hospital and rehabilitation equipment using intelligent materials for medicine, manufacturing medical products using modern manufacturing techniques. Students also learn how to implement and register medical devices, how to design materials, rehabilitation and sports equipment using CAD software, how to plan research that will allow for engineering support of sports training and use virtual reality during rehabilitation and sports training.

Why is it worth it?

Biomedical engineering is one of the fastest growing fields of knowledge, especially in countries with a high level of technological advancement. Education in this area is a response to the demand of the market looking for specialized engineering staff. The reason is, among others, the dynamic development of companies involved in the production of products and materials for the needs of medicine, and consequently the implementation of innovative technologies and medical products in health care units. It is worth mentioning that specialized medicine is one of the intelligent specialties of the Silesian Voivodeship, which means that the regional labor market will be looking for high-class specialists. Classes in our field are conducted in intimate conditions by well-qualified scientific and teaching staff. They take place in modern laboratories equipped with new generation equipment. This guarantees a high level of education, which was confirmed by the awarding by the Polish Accreditation Committee of the prestigious Certificate of Education Excellence in the category of Excellent Direction.

Your qualifications and skills:

After completing the second cycle of studies in Biomedical Engineering, the graduate has the ability to formulate and solve advanced biomedical problems using knowledge in the field of machine learning and artificial intelligence, biomechatronics, modern techniques of designing and manufacturing materials for medicine, implants, hospital, rehabilitation and sports equipment. During their studies, they acquire the ability to work creatively in a technical environment, make decisions and cooperate with people from the biomedical environment in the field of training, operation, service and maintenance of medical devices.
