If you want to combine your desire to help improve people’s health with your passion for technology and science, you’re in the right place. Request more information to be part of B.S. in Biomedical Engineering!
The objective of the B.S. in Biomedical Engineering program is to train engineers with a solid preparation in biological and medical sciences that create, implement and evaluate technological solutions that successfully serve the needs of the healthcare industry. In addition graduates of this program will be able to develop methods, devices, systems and medical services, complying with current regulations and behaving in an ethical manner. Their professional preparation will allow them to join multidisciplinary work teams and enter postgraduate study programs.
Competencies
- Sustain the functioning of live organisms and their interaction with biomedical devices, based on the principles of biomedical and chemical-biological science.
- Interpret medical-biological system measurements from a quantitative perspective in healthcare settings.
- Generate solutions to problems related to biological and health systems integrating the principles of engineering, basic science and medical science.
- Develop biomaterials and biomedical devices for the different healthcare stages, using cutting-edge technological tools.
- Develop healthcare technology management, evaluation and transfer processes, considering regulatory aspects.
Entry profile
Tecnológico de Monterrey is looking for a new generation of students that have finished their high school studies and are talented, enthusiastic individuals, who are committed to the development of their environment and the wellbeing of society; people who have the potential to study an undergraduate program and become leaders with an entrepreneurial spirit, humanistic sense and competitive on an international stage.
Entry requirements: High school or equivalent.
The three stages of the model
Choose your path
Exploration
- You will open your competency file and add to it throughout your degree program.
- You will learn the foundations of the area of Engineering - Innovation and Transformation.
- You will participate in fundamental and exploration challenges from the area of Creative Studies, interacting with peers from different degree programs.
- You will study general education courses, selecting them from a collection.
- You will participate in a challenge that integrates all the competencies to be developed in this phase.
Focus
- You will acquire the core competencies of your degree, in other words, those that distinguish it.
- You will participate in more focused challenges to reinforce what you have learned and broaden your basic knowledge.
- You will have the elements to decide whether to deepen your knowledge or diversify and, subsequently, build your specialization plan.
- The Tec Weeks, challenges and overall university experiences will enrich your file.
Specialization
- You have decided between diversifying or focusing deeply in your major, which you will achieve by choosing a concentration or a stay, to name a few of your options. The TEC Semester is a flexible time to start.
- You will develop the competencies related to your specialization, increasingly connected to your passions, interests and plans.
- By passing a concentration, you will develop your competencies, and, on graduating, will be a candidate for obtaining a Diploma in that concentration, after meeting the established requirements.
