After the pandemic, students' interest in biomedical engineering has increased and in fact, all the seats of the courses in top engineering colleges in the city are filling up fast.
Not only the city, but also students from outside are coming for admission in Biomedical Engineering. Only Shri Govindram Seksaria Technology & Science (SGSITS) in the city has Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Biomedical branch. It has 60 seats. Most of these seats were left vacant usually since the inception of the course.
Now this situation has changed. All the seats in the department have started filling up. A good number of students are also getting placement in various companies. Recently, Infosys company gave jobs to the students in an annual package of Rs 5 lakh.
After the pandemic, many other medical equipment makers are contacting the department.
Many types of equipment started being made in India too.
Dr BR Rawal, head of the department said that after the corona epidemic, many types of equipment have started being made in India too. This will give further momentum to this sector in the coming years. If students get funding, we can be in a better position in terms of manufacturing medical equipment.
Branch covers a wide variety of subjects
Dr Rawal said that the biomedical branch is a mixture of many disciplines. It includes topics such as IT, Electronics, Instrumentation, Artificial Intelligence and many more, due to which not only companies manufacturing medical equipment but companies working in IT and other fields also remain focused on it.
“Biomedical engineers study, design, develops and evaluates biological and medical systems and products such as artificial organs, prostheses, medical instruments and information systems,” Dr Rawal said.
Booming jobs titles attracting students to Biomedical Engineering
Manufacturing engineers develop and design medical products like medical instruments, imaging devices, prostheses, and others.
Many graduates with a biomedical engineering degree take the route of a medical school to become medical doctors.
Software Engineer: They focus on designing and developing computer programs for various medical applications.
Quality engineers are those biomedical engineers who are responsible for examining medical products to make sure they meet certain standards and specifications.
Researchers spend most of their time in finding solutions to medical problems. Many researchers also teach in the universities.
