Biomedical Engineering, a comparatively new discipline, deals with the application of engineering principles in the field of medicine. Biomedical Engineering deals with development, applications of the instrumentation, computers, materials, diagnostic and therapeutic devices, artificial organs and prostheses, and medical information systems for use in medical research and practice. The courses being taught in the Department are supplemented through laboratory work, seminars and internship. Upon the completion of the programme the young engineers would be able to work in their field with confidence or take up advanced studies and research in specialised fields.
