The student will be awarded with 2 certificates, which are Master in Engineering (Biomedical) from UTM and\/or Master in Biomedical Engineering (MSc) from TUIL. The students are required to spend at least 7 months at the partner university. Limited scholarships from German\u2019s government are available for selected students.<\/p>\n<h4><span><strong>Programme Features<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The above three Masters by research programmes are offered as full-time. A student will carry out research in any one of the areas of research chosen. Each research project is supervised by a lecturer of the Graduate Faculty. A Graduate Faculty member is an academic staff who has a doctoral degree qualification or an academic staff who holds an academic post of at least associate professor and is involved directly or indirectly in the post-graduate programmes. Co-supervisors may also come from a related industry.<\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span>Master of Philosophy &#8211; Programme Flowchart<\/span>\u00a0by Academic Office<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This programme flowchart can be used as a guideline for students to ensure that they are well informed on action items which need to be fulfilled during their active semester. This is also to avoid any late subject registration at the beginning of every semester and to assist all students with their research timeline towards graduate on time (GOT).<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/fke.utm.my\/biomedical\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/09\/FlowMBR.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;FlowMBR&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-44px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|86px||134px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.5&#8243; min_height=&#8221;1067px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px|||&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|auto|-59px|auto||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243; header_2_font=&#8221;Raleway|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#990000&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;5px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">General Information<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243;]<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;width: 100%;height: 346px\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>1.\u00a0\u00a0 Awarding Institution<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">Universiti Teknologi Malaysia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>2.\u00a0\u00a0 Teaching Institution<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">Universiti Teknologi Malaysia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0 Programme Name<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Biomedical Engineering)<\/p>\n<p>Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Biomedical Engineering-Double Degree)<\/p>\n<p>Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Rehabilitation Technology)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>4.\u00a0\u00a0 Final Award<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Biomedical Engineering)<\/p>\n<p>Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Biomedical Engineering-Double Degree)<\/p>\n<p>Master of Philosophy<\/p>\n<p>(Rehabilitation Technology)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 46px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\"><strong>5.\u00a0\u00a0 Programme Code<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\">MMBE<\/p>\n<p>MMBE<\/p>\n<p>MMBR<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 46px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\"><strong>6.\u00a0 \u00a0Professional or Statutory Body of Accreditation<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\">Malaysian Qualification Agency Engineering Accreditation Council<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Language(s) of Instruction<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">English<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 46px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\"><strong>8.\u00a0\u00a0 Mode of Study (Conventional,\u00a0distance learning, etc)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 46px\">Conventional (Coursework)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\"><strong>9.\u00a0\u00a0 Mode of operation (Franchise, self-govern, etc)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 23px\">Self-governing<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px\">\n<td style=\"width: 50%;height: 24px\"><strong>10.
