DEPARTMENT OF MEDICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING
Medical electronics is the study of the design, mechanics and software development of the devices used for diagnostic purposes in the medical sector. It consists more of the engineering part and less of the biology part. Medical electronic devices include pacemakers, defibrillators, drug-releasing pumps, hearing aids, and diagnostic equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves.
Medical Electronics Engineers are the one who design devices and measures that solve medical and health-related problems by combining their knowledge of biology and medicine with engineering principles and practices.
Due to the increased focus of people on their personal health, recent years have seen an increase in the demand for medical devices and medical electronics engineers.
The Medical Electronics course is a specialized discipline that advances knowledge in Engineering and Medicine, through cross-disciplinary activities that integrate the engineering sciences with the Biomedical Sciences and Clinical Practice. The duration of the Bachelor of Engineering in Medical Electronics course is four years.
