Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical engineering (BME) is the application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field. It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with the medical and biological science to help improve patient health care and the quality of life of healthy individuals. Wikipedia.
I was graduated from Electrical Engineering Department, Institute of Technology Bandung, Indonesia. My major was Biomedical Engineering.
I had to decide the major I took at my 2nd year. Then at the 3rd year (or 5th semester), I need to attend several biomedical class. Frankly, it was one of my mistake to take biomedical engineering. hahahahha.
One thing I remember about biomedical engineering class is: In the beginning of the class, we studied (well, actually was doctrined) about definition of biomedical engineering.
Biomedical Engineering (Teknik Biomedika) is a multidisciplinary field, involving various engineering, scientific and technological methods to solve problems in biology & medicine for the improvement of the community health-care. This is a growing field that continues to significantly contribute on health-care. Biomedical systems provide supports the medical professionals in conducting the medical procedures, which include: collecting of data/information, analysis, diagnosis, and therapy. Overview
But, I’m happy to take biomedical engineering, and I’m proud of it.
