College of Biomedical Engineering and Applied Sciences (CBEAS)
About
Actually, ‘Biomedical engineering’ refers to the use of principles of engineering disciplines for clinical diagnosis and therapy and for investigating the physiological basis of disease. Biomedical Engineering is for students who have a technical brain with an interest in medicine. Any kind of engineering related to medical science is called biomedical engineering. It includes the engineering of all kinds of therapeutic and diagnostic medical equipment (e.g. MRI, CT Scan, X-ray, Ultrasound, ECG, TMT etc.), implantable devices (e.g. pacemakers, heart valves, artificial joints, etc.) and tissue engineering (repair or manufacture of new human tissues and organs from cells acquired from the patient).
Eligibility
Must have secured C Grade in all subjects in +2 or equivalent.
OR
Students from both Maths and/or Biology streams of +2 science or ISc can apply for admissions for Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering (affiliated with Purbanchal University).
Job Prospects
Scopes and Importance:
International experts have commented extremely well on Nepalese syllabus and method of teaching this course. Research projects, done by the students in the last year of the course have been especially appreciated.
Biomedical Engineers are very much in demand abroad and are known to earn more than other professionals in this category. Nepal also has a growing market for such engineers.
In Nepal, hospitals and medical device companies are in great need of such Engineers. There are many specialties for post-graduation in this field. After graduation, one can specialize in Medical Electronics, Medical Physics, tissue engineering, Biomaterials, Biomechanics, and many others.
After Biomedical Engineering, a bright career awaits the students at hospitals, nursing homes, medical colleges, and medical device industries as part of their Biomedical Staff. With ultramodern hospitals mushrooming all over the country, there will be a very large demand in this discipline.
Apart from this, there are various modern industries dealing in medical equipment, which prefer Biomedical Engineers. Through this interdisciplinary course, we share the knowledge to advance the opportunities and the significance of Biomedical Engineering in efforts that ultimately improve health and quality of life.
