Biomedical Engineering and Instrumentation Program
Have you ever seen your doctor use machines to help check your heart rate, blood pressure, or maybe even take pictures of the inside of your body? Well, biomedical engineering and instrumentation is all about making those kinds of machines and tools that help people who are sick or hurt.
Imagine you have a puzzle to solve, but it’s really tricky and you need some special tools to figure it out. That’s kind of what biomedical engineers do – they design and build special tools that help doctors and medical professionals solve health problems.
But wait, what does instrumentation mean? It’s just another big word that means tools or devices that measure or record things. So, the program is not just about designing tools, but also about designing tools that can measure or record your health information.
Picture this, imagine you have a thermometer at home that you use to check if you have a fever or not. Biomedical engineers design these kinds of tools, but they also design bigger and more complex machines like X-ray machines, ultrasound machines, MRI scanners, and more. And these machines help doctors to look inside your body to see if anything is wrong or if there is something that needs fixing.
In the biomedical engineering and instrumentation program, you will learn how to design and build these tools and machines. And, you will also learn how to make sure they are safe, reliable, and accurate to help those who need them the most.
