There aren't many courses out there aimed at biomeds. But as I mentioned in my post on Modernising Scientific Careers they (MSC) are taking the lead on education & training. We had a student on workplace placement for 10 weeks who was on a Clinical Engineering course at Bradford Uni. We were amazed at the content of the degree, very basic electronics minimal computing. Loads of physiology & ethics. I had to introduce our student to the magic of Ohm's Law even though he had been studying Clinical Engineering for two terms by the time he came to us. He obviously learned more in the 10 weeks with us than six months at uni. The other notable thing to point out is that all of the students on this course came through clearing rather than being their first choice. The course was not oversubscribed either there were only 10 students on it of which two droped out before the end of the first year. I'll post a link to the course details if you want to have a look.
