The four year Bachelor of Science degree concentration in Biomedical Engineering
Technology is designed to prepare hospital-based technologists. Technical instruction
places emphasis in six areas:
- Inspection, performance testing and calibration of equipment
- Instruction, consultation, and medical staff assistance
- Equipment installation and modification
- Preventive Maintenance
- Equipment Repair
- Management
To enable the student to carry out the responsibilities and duties of a Biomedical
Engineering Technologist, the program provides instruction in mathematical, scientific,
and communications skills that allow the graduate to function at a professional level in a
modern hospital. The student develops a knowledge of modern electronics and biomedical
instrumentation, including the principles on which they work.
Internships
An internship program is provided to help develop the ability to function with
confidence andunderstanding in a hospital situation. At the present time, four clinical
sites are used for ENTC 4350 Biomedical Internship 1. Students must have
transportation to their internship site. Students must also furnish evidence of having
met health examination requirements for their internship.
Currently there are adequate clinical sites for student internships. In the event
student applications for internships exceed clinical positions available, the faculty
reserves the right to initiate selection criteria for the assignment of students.
