Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine - MSc
Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Faculty of Engineering
A materials masters from Sheffield equips you to address the challenges faced by industry in your chosen area of expertise. Employers around the world know we take talented students and push them to achieve their best.
About the course1 year full time This course introduces you to the field of biomaterials, and in particular to the factors that are important in the selection, design, and development of biomaterials for clinical applications. You'll develop a knowledge and understanding of biomaterials science, engineering, regenerative medicine, and its associated specialisms. Entry requirementsYou'll need an good honours degree or equivalent in materials, metallurgy, chemistry, dentistry, medicine or a related engineering or science subject from an approved institution. English language requirements for overseas studentsIELTS 6.5 (with at least 6 in each component), or TOEFL 91 (IBT). Entry requirements for international students

Where your masters can take youOur graduates are in demand, in industry and academia, all over the world. Some are now leaders in their field. Many become researchers, teachers, professors and managers in industry, academia and research in the UK and abroad. Wherever your future lies, you'll develop invaluable skills in critical analysis, logical reasoning and strategic project development. This course will give you a base for a professional career with a managerial role in the manufacturing industry or in a research-based institution. If you pass masters exams at a suitable standard you could choose to proceed to the research school for an MPhil/PhD degree. About our departmentOur courses are supported by our internationally recognised research. We are one of the largest materials departments in the UK. Our worldwide reputation is built on a strong collaborative ethos. We bring together experimental, theoretical and modelling methodologies to solve problems. We're a member of eight interdisciplinary research centres within the University and have good links with industry. You'll be challenged and stretched, and your degree will be highly respected. We encourage you to exploit opportunities for science and innovation at the boundaries between traditional disciplines. You'll be supported by our enthusiastic staff, whose broad activities include society membership and major international conferences. Our eight departmental research themes describe what we do:
Our graduates are in demand, in industry and academia, all over the world.Equipment and facilitiesWe have a range of tools and production facilities for materials processing, fabrication and testing, including wet chemical processing for ceramics and polymers, rapid solidification and water atomisation for nanoscale metallic materials, and extensive facilities for deposition of functional and structural coatings. Our unique thermomechanical compression and arbitrary strain path equipment is used for simulation of hot deformation. Excellent characterisation facilities include an array of microscopy and analysis equipment, x-ray facilities, and surface analysis techniques covering state-of-the-art XPS and SIMS. You'll also find laboratories for cell and tissue culture as well as facilities for measuring electrical, magnetic and mechanical properties. Our membership of the Kroto Research Institute and Nanoscience and Technology Centre enhances our capabilities in materials fabrication and characterisation, and we have a computer cluster for modelling from the atomistic through nano and mesoscopic to the macroscopic.
