The Minor Programme in Biomedical Engineering (BM) is open to all students of the University. It consists of 10 courses with a total workload of at least 60 credits. Due to unevenness in the number of credits between participating departments, in special cases an exception will be made for 10 courses of the programme that accumulate 57 or more credits. Students must complete the secondary degree within the 8-12 semesters provided for the completion of a regular degree. The choice of courses can be made between the courses offered in the Winter and Spring semesters:
