BioMedical Engineering College
Biomedical Engineering is a multidisciplinary field that combines biology and engineering, applying engineering principles and materials to medicine and healthcare.
The increasing demand for Biomedical Engineers is linked to society’s general shift towards everyday utilization of machinery and technology in all aspects of life. The combination of engineering principles with biological knowledge to address medical needs has contributed to the development of revolutionary and life-saving concepts such as: Surgical robots, Advanced prosthetics and Healthcare devices. This is evident throughout healthcare, from diagnosis and analysis to treatment and recovery, and has entered the public conscience through the proliferation of implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers and artificial hips.
