Overview
The Department of Biomedical Engineering was established in the year 2018 and offers a 4 year B.E. Biomedical Engineering Programme that is affiliated to Anna University. The branch involves the study and application of engineering processes for diagnosis, monitoring, and therapy in human healthcare. Biomedical Engineering is a rapidly changing interdisciplinary domain in which each branch of engineering interacts with a number of other disciplines to yield a fundamental understanding and design of healthcare processes and systems, improved diagnostics, optimal intervention, prosthetic organ assist systems, rehabilitation of disabled patients, and econometrics.
