Biomedical engineering is the result of applying the principles and techniques of engineering to the field of medicine. It is principally involved in the design and construction of medical devices and technologies such as medical equipment, prostheses, medical devices, diagnostics and therapy. Also involved in the management or administration of technical resources linked to a hospital system. It combines engineering expertise with medical needs to obtain benefits in health care.
In the beginning, this discipline was linked primarily to the application of electrical engineering and electronics to build medical equipment (medical equipment) and the design of prostheses and orthoses (Biomechanics and rehabilitation). Subsequently, a very important part of the applications of engineering to medicine was the instrumentation for imaging the human body.
I think the biomedical engineering is a career that has many areas of know-how, together various sciences that make the engineer a pretty comprehensive, and for that reason provides the opportunity to develop in different fields; is a career opportunity to join power to create great things focused on health care.
I study in the metropolitan technical institute, I am in the fifth semester, and I love every subject in the curriculum I believe that each is filled with valuable knowledge with them and I will have a large field of action in the future. to end I believe that this university offers the best alternative for the development of this profession and it grows every day of its students...
