The Bachelor's Degree in Biomedical Engineering is aimed at training professionals in different areas, including developing and designing new technologies and medical instrumentation and imaging, including tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. It is an interdisciplinary degree in which techniques from different areas of engineering such as electronic, mechanical, chemical, IT, telecommunications, and materials, are applied to 21st-century analysis and problem-solving in medicine and biology.

Modern medicine has given rise to the development of a wide range of novel engineering solutions to clinical problems. Examples of these developments vary from orthopaedic implants such as total hip replacements to cardiovascular implants such as coronary stents (small wire scaffolds inserted into the blood vessels around the heart). As a result of the increased collaboration between engineers and doctors, the new discipline of biomedical Engineering developed. Biomedical Engineering is the fastest growing area of Engineering.

Within the framework of the "Biomedical Engineering" program, bachelors are trained to work effectively in the design, construction, research, use, and operation of medical devices and biotechnical systems for various functional purposes.

The practice of biomedical engineering has a long history. One of the earliest examples is a wood and leather prosthetic toe found on a 3,000-year-old Egyptian mummy. Before that, even simple crutches and walking sticks were a form of engineered assistive devices, and the first person to fashion a splint for a broken bone could be considered to have been an early biomedical engineer. 

Clinical or medical technologists deal with the analysis of specimens that are critical to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. They perform a variety of physical, chemical, and microscopic analyses of body fluids and tissues using microscopes, chemicals, computers, and complex laboratory equipment.

To ensure a healthy planet and strong economy for current and future generations, a transition to a circular economy is needed. A circular economy is characterised by a system of closed loop processes. Ideally no waste is created, renewable energy sources are used, and raw materials, components and products retain their value. This transition asks for innovative engineering solutions that require a new way of thinking.

Throughout history, we have benefitted from these amazing discoveries; from Edward Jenner who created the world’s first vaccination for smallpox, to the use of contact lenses to non-invasively monitor blood glucose in diabetic patients, and up to today where scientists have created biotechnology software to identify human faces with DNA left behind at crime scenes as well as wearable tattoos to monitor our important body functions by sending the information directly to the smartphones of our doctors.

The development of medical biotechnologies is one of the major success stories of the last 20 years and continues to revolutionize the world of medicine. Exciting new developments have led the way to new treatments to combat previously life-threatening diseases and improve the quality of life. This program will lead you through some of the most important developments, helping you to understand them and opening up a future world of innovation and discovery.
