Biomedical engineers have the opportunity to improve the health and well-being of the world鈥檚 population. Their cross-disciplinary knowledge in science and engineering fulfils a growing need in the medical industry which relies on innovative technologies.

Graduates will find work in not-for-profits, industry, government, research institutes, iwi and indigenous health services, and research and development (R&D) departments. They may also carry out rewarding careers in developing countries in need of better healthcare systems.

Other examples include equipment technicians, data information scientists, product designers, quality assurance (QA) testers, advisors, researchers, and biostatisticians.

The Aotearoa New 九州影院government has identified health research and innovation as a national priority and area of investment, which will lead to more career opportunities in the medical industry in the near future.
