Department of Bio Medical Engineering

About Us

The Department of Biomedical Engineering was established in 2018 with an initial intake of 60 students for the B.E. Biomedical Engineering program. The intake was increased to 120 students in the academic year 2024–2025 to meet the growing demand for professionals in the healthcare technology sector.

The department is accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) for the period from 01 January 2026 to 31 December 2028, reflecting its commitment to academic excellence, continuous improvement, and Outcome-Based Education (OBE).

Biomedical Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that integrates engineering principles with medical and biological sciences to improve healthcare systems. The program combines knowledge from physical, chemical, mathematical, and computational sciences to understand biological systems and develop innovative medical technologies for diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation.

The curriculum provides a strong foundation in life science subjects such as Human Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Pathology, Microbiology, and Medical Physics, along with engineering fundamentals in Electronics and Instrumentation used in medical device development.

Students gain knowledge in biomedical signal and image processing, medical device technology, and computer applications in healthcare. The program also introduces emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Pattern Recognition, Data Science, and Neural Networks for advanced healthcare applications.

The department also focuses on specialized areas including Biomaterials, Artificial Organs, Biocontrol Systems, Drug Delivery Systems, and Rehabilitation Engineering. Students are trained in the design, installation, calibration, and maintenance of medical equipment used in hospitals and healthcare industries.

Graduates of Biomedical Engineering have diverse career opportunities in hospitals, healthcare industries, research organizations, and medical device companies. They can work as Biomedical Engineers, Clinical Engineers, Medical Equipment Maintenance Engineers, Research and Development Engineers, Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Engineers, Biomedical Data Analysts, and Product or Application Specialists for medical devices. They also have opportunities to pursue higher studies and research in Biomedical Engineering and related interdisciplinary fields.

The overall objective of the program is to develop competent Biomedical Engineering professionals who can effectively bridge the gap between engineering innovation and medical science, contributing to research, healthcare technology development, and improved patient care.
