Medical Engineering

Research for the people

is the focus of our degree programme. Right from the start, medical skills are taught parallel to the technical and scientific pillars of physics, computer science, mathematics and electrical engineering.

The course thus creates a bridge between medicine and technology at the Lübeck campus.

Focus on Medical Visualisation

In the focus of Medical Visualisation, competencies in the field of medical imaging and image processing are taught. Problems in relation to clinical everyday life are considered and solutions are derived.

Focus on Medical Photonics

Specialisation in Medical Photonics covers facets of biomedical optics and biophysics. Problems and their solutions are considered on a microscopic level.

Job Prospects

In order to develop the next generations of medical diagnostic and therapeutic devices, medical technology companies have a great need for qualified scientists who research new technologies in development and research laboratories

Our course of studies releases practice-oriented graduates into the job market. They solve problems independently and exploit their creative potential.


Bachelor and Master in Medical Engineering Science


The courses of both the bachelor and the master degree programmes are generally taught in German. In particular, applicants must have a good command of German. Please consult the German pages on the programmes for details.  

Medical Engineering Science Courses Taught in English

Although the majority of the courses in the degree programmes are taught in German, there are a number of courses taught in English that are suitable for exchange students. Please refer to the english module guides of the bachelor and the master degree programmes for more information.
