Medical Engineering, often also referred to as Biomedical Engineering, is the application of engineering principles to biology and medicine. The main aim of Medical Engineering is to improve healthcare and medicine by designing biomedical equipment and technology, artificial internal organs, replacements for body parts, and machines for diagnosing medical problems. Medical Engineering deals with data related to materials used in biomedicine, human behavioral systems and measuring of life processes. Students in Medical Engineering can expect study content including subjects like Immunoengineering, Soft Tissue Biomechanics, Orthopedic Biomechanics, Cardiovascular Biomechanics, Ultrasound Imaging, Biophysics, Medical Information Systems and others. It is essential for students in Medical Engineering to apply the theoretical knowledge in practice and learn how to process and analyze biomedical images, use ultrasonic methods of diagnosis, and process digital biomedical signals. Medical Engineering degree programs produce qualified and skilled professionals who have the ability to detect biomedical problems and develop appropriate solutions, carefully measure and analyze data, design and manufacture biomedical products and think critically and in a detail-oriented way. Potential careers for Medical Engineering graduates include biomedical product developer, medical equipment designer, hospital and state institution consultant and others.
