School of Medicine

The Biomedical Engineering MSc Program (BME) is a master program delivered by three collaborating Institutions in Crete, Greece:

  • the University of Crete (Heraklion)
  • the Technical University of Crete (Chania)
  • the Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas (Heraklion).

The program seeks to capture the global megatrends in the field of Biomedical Engineering by offering high level education in three major sectors:

  • Biofabrication, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy Module
  • Βio-Medical Imaging
  • Medical Information Systems

BME program is flexible, offering two graduation tracks, one with 90 credits and one with 120 credits. The first track is intended to educate graduate students willing to develop a career as biomedical engineers employed by industry/hospitals.

The second track is designed to prepare graduate students willing to continue in a Ph.D. program, through a research grade thesis conducted in one of the affiliated research labs.

School of Production Engineering and Management, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Technology and Innovation are key drivers of competitive advantage in today’s knowledge economy. Today’s public or private organizations need skilled and innovative executives and chief officers who can not only develop and deploy critical technologies but also ensure that those enterprise technologies have a positive impact on business & organizations, employees, product & services and customers.

The Master in Technology & Innovation Management (MTIM) program builds upon the technical strengths of engineers and scientists by providing them with skills and knowledge to manage technology and innovation within their organizations. The MTIM program is suitable for those working in the public or private sector.

The MTIM program is designed for graduates from a wide range of academic backgrounds including Engineering Schools, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Agriculture, Business Administration, Finance, Information Technology, Medical & Bio-medical, Military Academies and Technological Universities & Institutes from EU and non EU countries.
