Bachelor of Engineering in Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering

Comments about Bachelor of Engineering in Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering - At the institution - Ottawa - Ontario

• Objectives
  The Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering program at Carleton uniquely combines the foundation of mechanical engineering and the exciting and rapidly growing discipline of Biomedical Engineering. This combination includes the chemistry, biology and biochemistry knowledge needed to contribute to biomechanical technology development and design and the engineering science and design disciplines of biofluids, biomaterials and biomechanics. This integration of topics within the program gives students the ability and opportunity to design and build new components and systems for biomechancial applications. Among other exciting applications are the design of prostheses, artificial organs, new drug delivery systems, medical devices for improved health care and monitoring, The possibilities are almost endless in this fast growing field and the chance to impact the lives of all around us immense.
• Practical experience
  As a student in the Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering program, you have the opportunity to enrol in a co-operative education option. Our program is closely linked with the local hospitals, research institutions and industry.
