About Program
Biomedical engineering is a multidisciplinary field of engineering, which develops devices and solutions for diagnosis, therapeutic and regenerative purposes targeted to health sector by applying engineering principles to biology and medicine. Biomedical engineering has a close cooperation with the world of medicine and is supported by the scientific areas such as electrics and electronics, computers, mechanics, materials and genetics. Examples of applications of biomedical engineering: the development of medical imaging systems and software, the development of devices for the measurement and analysis of biological signals, improving the clinical diagnosis and treatment apparatus, biocompatible materials (implants) production, regenerative tissue formation, development of personalized therapies, production of pharmaceuticals and therapeutic biologicals.
Goals
The objective of biomedical engineering undergraduate program is to train engineers who can produce strategies, devices and solutions aimed for diagnosis and therapy for the health sector by applying the engineering principles in life sciences; will develop new products which are needed in the biomedical sector and can make designs in order to improve current products; have high professional and ethical standards; comprehend philosophy of life-long education and have developed capabilities for group-working, effective communication and innovative thinking.
Summary of Program Outcomes
Graduates are able to apply knowledge of mathematics and science to the engineering problems; identify, formulate and solve engineering problems; design a system, component or a process; use the techniques and tools for the engineering applications. design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret the results.
