Introduction
Department Research Committee takes charge of postgraduate education and training, including admission process, providing essential training workshops and didactic lectures and monitoring progress of research work. There are two study modes in our postgraduate studies, including
1) Research Programme – Ph.D. and M.Phil.
Since the establishment of the Department in 1983, more than 60 Ph.D., M.D. and M.Phil. students have graduated from the Department and most of them have become university professors, chief medical services, postdoctoral fellows or working in other related medical and health institutions. List of graduate

2) Taught Programme – M.Sc.
The Department is actively engaged in multidisciplinary research and education because of increasing demands on orthopaedics and related profession. Based on increasing needs, the Department established MSc in Sports Medicine and Health Science and MSc in Musculoskeletal Medicine, Rehabilitation and Geriatric Orthopaedics. The Department also intensively involves in teaching in MSc in Biomedical Engineering.
M.Sc. in Sports Medicine and Health Science
The postgraduate programme is designed to provide advanced academic training to sports medicine professionals, especially medical doctors, physiotherapists, nurses, sports scientists and allied health professionals who want to equip with the latest advanced knowledge and leading-edge skills in order to stay ahead professionally in the field of sports and exercise medicine. By providing advanced theories, knowledge combined with latest advanced hands on clinical practices for sports and exercise medicine, these programmes are tailored to offer a foundation for future leaders in the field of sports and exercise medicine either in clinical research or professional practice.
Sport injuries and their prevention and treatment form the cornerstone of the programmes. A wide range of related medical topics such as biomechanics, physiology and psychology are also covered in the programmes.

Objectives of the programme:
BME is a highly interdisciplinary and composed of elements from Medicine, Engineering and Biosciences. Accordingly, the objectives of MSC in BME are
To create a unique and rigorous programme that bridges and integrates the fields of pure biomedical and engineering disciplines, and to offer students an exciting interdisciplinary studying environment.
To educate and train future leaders in emerging areas which combine state-of-the-art technology with biomedicine applications to support a growing healthcare industry stimulated by breakthrough in biomedical engineering research.
Currently we are running both part-time and full-time two modes for MSC in BME. Details of the programme, entry requirement, faculty members and courses offered are found in the programme homepage:
