Testimonials
Emmanuela
My MSc tuition fees were sponsored by AMI, a Biotech company interested in a mini-project, tuned to my own expertise. This is largely due to the hands-on approach, that the Lab has towards its students’ careers.
Lampros
The MSc in Biomedical Engineering, was my starting point within the R&D community. I was recruited for a funded PhD position, just 6-months after enrolling!
Georgios
BCM provided me with a fundamental background in Biomedical Engineering, while mentoring me through the set-up of a UoWM spin-off. Less than 12 months later, we have already applied for competitive research funding and are on course, with our ambitious business plan.
Konstantinos
The MSc, equipped me with an attractive skill-set that swiftly opened-up opportunities for me in the Biomedical sector!
