Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Biomedical Engineering

The master's degree is directed at two types of students, in line with study programmes in the European Higher Education Area, with the following two pathways:

• Graduates in Biomedical Engineering (90 credits in three semesters of 30 credits each): one semester on economics and business, one on advanced health technologies, and one to prepare the final master's degree project (in hospitals, companies, business schools and research centres).

In order to ensure their success in the master's degree, applicants should have a good command of English.

In accordance with Article 16 of Royal Decree 1393/29 October 2007, students must hold one of the following qualifications to access university master's degree courses:

• An official Spanish degree.
  
• A degree issued by a higher education institution within the European Higher Education Area framework that authorizes the holder to access university master's degree courses in the country of issue.
  
• A qualification from outside the framework of the European Higher Education Area. In this case, the qualification should be recognized as equivalent to an official Spanish degree. If it is not recognized, the University of Barcelona shall verify that it corresponds to a level of education that is equivalent to official Spanish degrees and that it authorizes the holder to access university master's degree courses in the country of issue. Admission shall not, in any case, imply that prior qualifications have been recognized as equivalent to a Spanish master's degree and does not confer recognition for any purposes other than that of admission to the master's degree course.

The Master's Degree in Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Biomedical Engineering is designed for graduates in Biomedical Engineering.

Students who take the master's degree must also have level B2 English.
