B.E Bio-medical Engineers

CURRICULUM
In the first year at the college, students are introduced to Basic Engineering, Mathematics and Science subjects. This helps them to acquire a better understanding of the subjects to be studied in the subsequent semesters, which include:

Medical & Healthcare subjects like Bio-chemistry , Human Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology and Pathology are introduced mainly to understand the basic structure and functions of the human body and the pathologic conditions which form the basis for the Bio-medical applications.

Basic subjects of Electronics and Communication, have a wide application in bio-signal conditioning and transmission. They include Electronic devices, Circuits and Networks, Analog and Digital Integrated circuits and Principles of Communication.

Signals and systems deals with acquiring the signals, followed by Digital signal processing & Digital Image Processing which forms the basis for the Bio-signal and medical image processing.

The core subjects in Bio-medical Engineering are Bio-sensors, Bio-medical instrumentation, Radiological, Diagnostic and Therapeutic equipments systems used for measuring and interpreting the various data & patients.
Bio-materials deal with materials that can be used in implantation and many features of artificial organs and devices, such as ceramics, polymers, metals, alloys, and composite materials, with the goal of minimizing implant rejection and simulating the body's original Bio-mechanical environment.

The architecture and programming languages - Micro-processors and Computer Architecture deal with areas concerning computer hardware. The various computer software subjects include Visual Programming and Computers in Medicine which help in understanding the applications of computers in the field of medicine.
ELECTIVES

Apart from the core subjects, the students have a choice of selecting any 2 elective subjects from specialized areas like: Biomechanics, Neural Networks and its applications, Pattern Recognition, Physiological Modeling, Medical Informatics, Bio-fluids and Dynamics, Medical Imaging Techniques, etc.

In addition, special interest is taken to ensure that practical sessions that are related to the theory papers are conducted at regular intervals. To strengthen the concepts of theory and to provide hands-on experience, practical sessions are provided along with mini projects. In the final year, the students work on projects along with a dissertation.
