Why Bio-medical Engineering?

Updated: Oct 1, 2021

FORBES calls Biomedical Engineering: The High-Paying, Low-Stress STEM Job You Probably Haven't Considered."

Engineering, what an innovative field! So innovative, that if it was not for engineering, the application of problem solving principles, that leads to new scientific discoveries would have us still using a quill, the three-wheeled Benz Patent Motor Car, or the carved bamboo pegs for tooth replacements.

In regards to Biomedical Engineering, the field provides a melting pot of Sciences, Engineering, and Math which are all integrated to improve human health. The beauty Biomedical Engineering brings to the field of Engineering is the "aspects of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, chemistry, mathematics, computer science and engineering" all forged with human biology.

Biomedical Engineers are innovators, designers, inquisitive, critical thinkers, intrigued about developing new medical technologies or advancing research on artificial recreation of human organs, transplants, surgical robots, new pharmaceutical drugs, and the "development of other revolutionary and life saving. Needless to say, there are many specializations in the field of Biomedical Engineering.

  • Biomedical Electronics

  • Biomaterials

  • Computational Biology

  • Cellular, Tissue, & Genetic Engineering

  • Medical Imaging

  • Orthopaedic Bioengineering

  • Bionanotechnology




So why not Biomedical Engineering? The field of study provides an array of specialization for any young adult. And, according to Forbes and CNN Money, Biomedical Engineering in the number one best job field in America.
