In the United Kingdom, the field of engineering in biology and medicine is so new that universities cannot agree on what to call it or even where to teach it. Undergraduate students in the United Kingdom can register for degrees in bioengineering, biomedical engineering, medical engineering, clinical engineering, medical physics, or even rehabilitation engineering; and these could be taught in specialist institutions, mechanical and electronic engineering departments, medical schools and hospitals, or even by distance learning.
在英国,生物与医学工程领域非常新,以至于各大学对于该如何称呼它,甚至在哪里教授它都无法达成一致。英国的本科生可以注册学习生物工程、生物医学工程、医学工程、临床工程、医学物理,甚至康复工程等专业的学位;而这些课程可能在专业院校、机械与电子工程系、医学院及医院,甚至通过远程学习来教授。
