Biomedical Engineering (BME) is an interdisciplinary field of science and technology that combines engineering and life sciences. The task of BME is to solve problems that arise in the study of living objects, using engineering methods and principles. This is a wide range of activities: from direct clinical application to long-term basic research (Emory University, Atlanta, U.S.A.).
The activity of the Department of Biomedical Engineering is made on preparation of bachelors, masters, from specealities 163 Biomedical Engineering on the basis of educational and professional training program Medical Engineering (Bachelor, Master).
The main difference between Biomedical Engineers and other Engineering and technical workers — in-depth biological and medical training, medical worldview in setting and solving engineering problems, the ability to independently implement and control the engineering component of medical and diagnostic technology when working in medical institutions.
