Is "Biomedical" engineering the same as "Medical" engineering, as i see medical engineering on many university websites.
Hey guys! It's nice to see that there are actually other interested in this course! :smile: I've applied for Oxford, imperial, leeds, glasgow and Sheffield. I've had offers from glasgow and Sheffield and have an interview at Leeds in January. Good Luck all! :smile:

Goodluck everyone!:smile:

Southampton but the course is called mechanical/biomedical engineering
Would you know pros/cons about Leeds and Southampton universities? I can't seem to make my mind up between the two for medical engineering. It seems so that Southampton is ranked more highly academically but only very slight.. Don't know anything about the quality of student life..
