课程特征 Course Features:
The University of Edinburgh is one of the largest and most distinguished teaching and research institutions in the world. The University is located in Scotland's historic and beautiful capital city which offers a wide range of cultural events and recreational facilities, together with easy access to Scotland's unspoilt wilderness.
The MSc in Bioelectronics brings together our work in microfabrication, microfluidics, micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS), micro-machining, neural computation, integrated circuit design, and system-on-chip design. We have strong links to the biological and medical sciences at the university, and thus "bioelectronics" in several forms now provides an area of rapid growth that links the core activities within the School.

评估 Assessment:
In the 1st semester an introduction to bioelectronics is given that explores how relevant cross-disciplinary sciences are exploited in the growing technical ability to develop ‘bioelectronic’ devices. More advanced courses then follow, followed by a project whose topic will usually be based on the current research at the Graduate School of Engineering. Semesters run from September to December and January to March, with exams held in December and April/May. The main work on the project is carried out between May and August, although preparatory work is undertaken in the 2nd semester.
