12 Bio & Biomedical Engineering Masters in Belgium

Master in Bioinformatics

Bioinformaticians are distinguished by their ability to formulate biologically relevant questions, to design and implement the appropriate solution by managing and analysing high-throughput molecular biological and sequence data, and to interpret the obtained results.

Master in Biomedical Engineering

A young and rapidly growing discipline, biomedical engineering applies the methods and techniques of the engineer to the sciences of living organisms, in particular towards therapeutic ends. It concerns above all research and development, within a range of domains such as bioinformatics, medical imaging, processing of images and physiological images, bioinstrumentation, biomechanics*, biomaterials systemic and synthetic biology.

Master in Biomedical Engineering

The Master of Engineering: Biomedical Engineering programme provides students with a state-of-the-art overview of all areas in biomedical engineering: biomechanics, biomaterials, medical sensors and signal processing, medical imaging and tissue engineering.

Master in Tropical Natural Resources Management

This programme aims to understanding how and why actors in biological production systems make certain decisions with respect to the management of these systems and to the use of natural resources.

Master in Biomedical Engineering

The Engineering faculties of the Universiteit Gent and Vrije Universiteit Brussel organize the interuniversitary Master of Biomedical Engineering and this in a close collaboration with the Medical faculties of both universities.

Master in Molecular Biology

IPMB aims at strengthening and up-dating the theoretical and practical skills of young scientists from developing countries who are already involved in research and/or teaching in either human or animal health care or agriculture.

Master in Master of Molecular and Cellular Biophysics

The Master of Molecular and Cellular Biophysics is an international interdisciplinary study programme offered by the Faculties of Science and Medicine in collaboration with the Departments of Physics and Astronomy, Chemistry, Biology, the Medical Imaging Centre, and the Physiology Research Group.

Master in Biochemical Engineering

Group T organizes four master programs. Within these four masters, different focuses (also known as ‘concentrations’) are offered. You choose one master focus. This allows you to specialize further in your area of technological expertise, or to stay in touch with other technological disciplines. (Upon graduation you can enter the job market or go on to do a PhD.)

Master in Food Technology

To fulfil its nutritional destiny, food must be both safely produced and safely delivered to its end consumer.

Master in Master of Biomedical Sciences

Hasselt University

This master degree program focuses on the novel and interdisciplinary scientific domain at the boundaries between physics, chemistry, electronics and biomedical sciences. The program ensures a broad overview of bioelectronics and nanotechnology and hence, represents an excellent preparation for a career in research and development in a multidisciplinary environment.

Master in International Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering

Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB)

Vrije Uuniversiteit Brussel and UGent are partner in the Erasmus Mundus program in biomedical engineering (Common European Master Course in Biomedical Engineering or CEMACUBE), starting in September 2010. For this program, students studying in Belgium register at UGent.

Master in Food Technology

Ghent University

This course intends a profound study of food sciences and technology which are pointed out from different angles. Experts are formed who are trained in problem solving concerning food products, with an emphasis on product technology.
