The Bachelor of Engineering (Biomedical) with Honours is offered on a full-time basis. There is a growing demand for technical professionals who can effectively integrate the fields of biomedical science and engineering. Professionals who are capable of understanding medical problems within the context of engineering sciences will be able to solve problems that are of interest to both engineers and medical practitioners.

This new field of biomedical engineering has made significant contributions to technological advancement in various fields of medicine and healthcare.  These include the creation and production of artificial human parts, communication aids and assistive tools for people with disabilities, new diagnostic and therapeutic tools that lead to new medical procedures, etc. Technology in medicine has advanced so much that, today, there are countless medical devices specifically designed for home use.

The Biomedical Engineering bachelor programme is a mixed curriculum of engineering and biomedical sciences. The course contents for 1^st year and 2^nd year are geared towards the principles and fundamentals of biomedical engineering and sciences, such as Introduction to Biomedical Engineering and Basic Anatomy & Physiology; while also learning general engineering courses such as Engineering Mathematics and Digital Electronics. Students are also required to take general university courses such as Academic English Skill and Islamic & Asian Civilization.

In the 3^rd year students will be exposed to more specialised courses such as Biomedical Instrumentation & Measurement, Clinical Engineering, and Biomedical Materials. In the final 4^th year, students will be further reinforced in the field of biomedical engineering through courses like Biomedical Systems Design, Biochemistry for Biomedical Engineers and Biomedical Signal Processing. Students will also be required to take three elective courses such as Rehabilitation Engineering, Biosystems Modelling, and Medical Informatics. In addition, students in the final year are required to complete a Final Year Project (FYP), Professional Practice in Biomedical Engineering and Entrepreneurship. All these courses are designed and structured to produce a competent and reliable biomedical engineer.

Graduates of this course can find work opportunities in hospitals, companies involve in biomedical products, either manufacturing them, sales and service, or R&D, Ministry of Health, Malaysia, and any other party interested in health care. Among the job opportunities available to the biomedical engineer are:
