Study Program Biomedical Engineering
Introduction
The Development of technology in the modern medical field demands cooperation between multidisciplined fields in creating new innovations based on technology which supports diagnosis and therapy to fulfill the development of societies by increasing health and the individual quality of life. The advantement of Biomedical engineering can answer this challenge.
Purposes
The Program aims to train professional students who will be able to:
- Develop Biomedical Engineering based on research
- Create medical tools which are cheaper and safe for the human body
- Create imitation organs which are safe for the human body
- Work together with multidiscipline teams
- Work together with people of the industry especially people who produce medical tools
Graduate Competency
After graduating from the program, students are hoped to have competency to do research and develop biomedical engineering by using local natural resources.
Registration Requirements
