Presentation Transcript

  1. Biomedical Engineer: Design products and procedures that solve medical problems. These include artificial organs, prostheses, instrumentation, medical information systems, and health management and care delivery systems. CRICOS: 00116K

  2. Treatment: Doctor diagnoses and treat patient diseases. Biomedical Scientist analyses the blood from a patient so that the doctor knows how to diagnose and treat. Biomedical Engineer design the equipment used to analyse the blood. CRICOS: 00116K

  3. Heart Transplant: • Biomedical Scientist determines blood flow and heart functions • Biomedical Engineer uses this information to design the artificial heart • Doctor carries out surgery and monitors patient health CRICOS: 00116K

  4. Replacing Damaged Skin Biomedical Scientist establishes how the artificial skin will be tolerated by the body. Biomolecular Engineer designs, operates and maintains the process to grow the synthetic skin (tissue engineering). Doctor operates to graft the artificial skin to the body. CRICOS: 00116K

  5. Repairing a Damaged Hip Biomedical Scientist establishes how the hip joint functions in the body Biomedical Engineer designs the prosthesis (artificial hip) Doctor operates on the patient and monitors the recovery CRICOS: 00116K

  6. Repairing Damaged Bones Biomedical Scientist establishes how the bones function in the body. Biomedical Engineer designs the equipment to be used during surgery to ensure correct alignment. 3. Doctor operates on the patient and monitors the recovery. CRICOS: 00116K

  7. Health Care Food & Agriculture Environmental Research Energy Regulatory Finance CRICOS: 00116K

  8. Parkville - the major centre in Australia for medical and bio-scientific research, education, clinical practice and production of pharmaceutical and biotechnology products for clinical trials. Home to 2,000 researchers, 12 research institutes, 8 hospitals and 8 major industrial companies and the new Bio21 complex. Bio21. CRICOS: 00116K

  15. 4 year program No mid-year entry Degree name is Bachelor of Engineering (Biomedical) Combined degrees not possible Most programs in Australia either 5 year combined degrees, or BE with single subject biomedical electives CRICOS: 00116K

  16. BIOMEDICAL Engineering What is Biomedical Engineering ? Biomedical engineering is the application of techniques drawn from engineering to the analysis and solution of problems in biology and medicine. Biomedical engineering applies the techniques of all classical engineering disciplines to problems encountered in living systems. CRICOS: 00116K

  17. BIOMEDICAL Engineering Increasing focus on health issues, aging populations around the world – growing expectations of the delivery of better medical devices & equipment designed by Biomedical Engineers. ‘Employment of Biomedical Engineers is expected to grow faster than all occupations in US through to 2012’ (Source: US Department of Labour – Bureau of Labor Statistics – www.bls.gov) CRICOS: 00116K

  18. BIOMEDICAL Engineering • Four Programs : • biocellular engineering • bioinfomatics • biomechanics • biosignals processing • First two years largely common (strong links with Biomedical Science in early years) CRICOS: 00116K
