An introduction and career opportunities in Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical engineers use their expertise in biology, medicine, physics, mathematics, engineering science, and communication to make the world a healthier place. The challenges created by the diversity and complexity of living systems require creative, knowledgeable, and imaginative people working in teams of physicians, scientists, engineers, and even business professionals to monitor, restore, and enhance normal body function. The biomedical engineer is ideally trained to work at the intersection of science, medicine, and mathematics to solve biological and medical problems.
Biomedical engineers differ from other engineering disciplines that have an influence on human health in that biomedical engineers use and apply an intimate knowledge of modern biological principles in their engineering design process. There are many sub-disciplines within biomedical engineering, including the design and development of active and passive medical devices, orthopedic implants, medical imaging, biomedical signal processing, tissue and stem cell engineering, and clinical engineering, just to name a few.
