B.E. Biomedical Engineering at J.N.N Institute of Engineering

Duration of Program : 4 Years (8 Semesters)

Seats: 60

Biomedical Engineering is the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering to biology and medicine.

Biomedical Engineering is evident throughout healthcare, from diagnosis and analysis to treatment and recovery and has entered the public conscience though the proliferation of implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers and artificial hips, to more futuristic technologies such as stem cell engineering and the 3-D printing of biological organs. 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. The study of biomedical engineering involves a broad array of diagnostic and therapeutic applications. This branch of engineering and science is a fascinating multidisciplinary area of study that entails the application of engineering techniques in order to assist practitioners like doctors and physicians in their healthcare practices. Study of this branch also helps them in the rehabilitation of disabled patients.
