Overview

Although a natural choice for those with degrees in Materials Engineering, it is also intelligible for graduates from other areas akin to either Materials or Biomedicine.

Accordingly, the Master's programme in Biomaterials and Biomedical Devices at Universidade de Aveiro includes integration courses designed for those with 1st degrees in different areas in order to establish a common basis of concepts and language, as required by the interdisciplinarity of the biomedical area.

The purpose of attracting graduates from diverse backgrounds is both to correspond to the growing interest in linking the life sciences with other scientific areas, and to provide future masters with an added value regarding employability.

Professional outcomes

Master's graduates are prepared to find employment in biomedical research laboratories, in industries manufacturing materials and components for biomedicine, and with suppliers of implantable components and devices and instruments for diagnosis, amongst others.
