The first Professorship for Neurobionik (german for neurobiomimetics) in germany is established at the University of Aachen (www.rwth-aachen.de). You can make a Diploma in that area if you want to.

I only found the german one but you should write to:
Prof. Werner Baumgartner (werner(at)bio2.rwth-aachen.de)
or to Dr. Harald Luksch (luksch(at)bio2.rwth-aachen.de)
so one of them can create the english site for you.

The Biokon (Bionik Kompetenz Netz) is also available in english. There are many examples for recent reserch in Bionik or as you said in english Biomimetics. It is all availlable in english but sometimes you got to press the Union Jack button to show a page in english.
