What does it train you for?
The objective of the Bachelor Degree Course is to introduce students to:
- mathematics, chemistry, thermodynamics, mechanics and electromagnetism fundamentals and their engineering applications;
- the primary properties and characteristics of materials and biomaterials in interactions with biological tissues;
- biochemistry, biology and medicine fundamentals;
- designing and producing artificial systems for the functional recovery of tissues and organs to substitute, integrate or rehabilitate;
- electronics, robotics and medical software development basics;
- developing and analysing medical-biological signals, images and data.
What do you learn?
You learn to:
- prepare and characterise biomaterial for applications such as prosthetics, diagnosis and cure, developing existing relationships between working, structure and properties;
- design and evaluate the use of suitable materials for diagnostic medical devices for the prevention and treatment of diseases and handicaps, substitution or modification of anatomy or a physiological process;
- design and produce biomechanical (passive prosthetics), electronic (sensors and diagnostics), mechatronic (active prosthetics) and robotic (robotic surgery) devices;
- develop biosensors, new prosthetics and artificial organs, devices for biomedical use, pharmacological devices and devices for the support and assistance of the disabled;
- develop technology for diagnostics;
- analyse electrical and/or magnetic phenomena;
- elaborate data and images;
- model physiological systems;
- design, create and test medical devices and implants designed for diagnosis, treatment and monitoring;
- develop and manage the production and creation of electromedical biosensors and instruments;
- develop clinical decision-making and health information system supports;
- develop medical software.
What can you do with it?
- work freelance or in industry, hospitals and health institutes, specialist clinical laboratories and research centres and universities;
- design, produce, manage and test biomedical and pharmaceutical devices;
- manage health service supply;
- manage suitable medical software for diagnostic assistance;
- work as an engineer responsible for health information systems or a support engineer for biomedical laboratory activities and radiology health institutes;
- perform research, design and/or production work on materials and biomaterials for biomedical devices, systems and equipment for diagnosis, cure and rehabilitation.
