Diploma Biomedical Engineering Technology (Fast-Track) - Diploma en Tecnología de Ingeniería Biomédica

The Biomedical Engineering Technology (Fast Track) program is beneficial to students with a college or university electronics background. Their educational background allows them to gain direct admission into the second year (third semester) of this three-year diploma program and receive an advanced diploma in two years (four semesters).

The Biomedical Engineering Technology courses, which are facilitated through the School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science, combine engineering with medicine. You use technical problem-solving skills while learning about biomedical engineering principles, among which are:

Electronics
Computers
Embedded microcontrollers
Chemistry
Biology
Medicine
Health
Product engineering in the design of medical equipment, rehabilitation and health improvement devices
The merger between the biomedical equipment industry, engineering and scientific disciplines has seen innovations within the healthcare system which require qualified professionals in biomedical engineering. Biomedical Engineering Technology graduates are in demand! The program continues to evolve to reflect the ever-growing innovations in the industry, upgrading its curriculum to do so.
