Description: Biomedical engineering is a multidisciplinary field that integrates principles and techniques from engineering, biology, and medicine to develop innovative solutions for healthcare and biomedical applications. Biomedical engineers apply engineering principles to understand, design, and develop medical devices, diagnostic tools, imaging techniques, biomaterials, and therapeutic strategies for improving human health and quality of life. They work across various areas of medicine, including diagnostics, therapeutics, rehabilitation, and regenerative medicine, to address challenges such as disease diagnosis and treatment, patient care, and medical technology innovation. Biomedical engineering plays a critical role in advancing medical technology, personalized medicine, and healthcare delivery.

Aims & Scope: Biomedical Engineering encompasses a wide range of research, education, and application areas aimed at developing technologies and devices for healthcare and biomedical applications. Our department focuses on the following key areas:

  1. Medical Imaging and Diagnostic Devices: Developing imaging techniques and medical devices for visualizing and diagnosing diseases and medical conditions, including techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, positron emission tomography (PET), and optical imaging.

  2. Medical Devices and Instrumentation: Designing and developing medical devices and instruments for monitoring, diagnosing, and treating medical conditions, including devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, infusion pumps, prosthetic limbs, and surgical instruments.

  3. Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering: Designing and synthesizing biomaterials for medical applications, including scaffolds, hydrogels, nanoparticles, and biocompatible polymers, as well as studying tissue engineering approaches for repairing or replacing damaged tissues and organs.

  4. Biomechanics and Rehabilitation Engineering: Studying the mechanical properties and dynamics of biological tissues, organs, and systems, including studies on musculoskeletal biomechanics, cardiovascular mechanics, and neural control of movement, as well as developing assistive devices and rehabilitation technologies for individuals with disabilities.

  5. Biomedical Signal Processing and Data Analysis: Developing algorithms and computational methods for processing, analyzing, and interpreting biological signals and data, including studies on bioinformatics, genomics, proteomics, and systems biology, as well as developing predictive models for disease diagnosis and prognosis.

Through interdisciplinary collaboration, innovation, and education, our Biomedical Engineering department aims to advance scientific knowledge, develop biomedical technologies and devices, train future biomedical engineers and researchers, and contribute to improving human health and well-being through the application of biomedical engineering principles and methodologies in healthcare, biotechnology, and regenerative medicine.
