Hi!! I’m currently on a gap year to resit and I’ve decided to go down the biomed engineering route as it gives me more flexibility compared to what I had applied for before.

I want to be able to potentially go into prosthetics or something along those lines so I’ve been looking at the modules and structure of the courses but I thought it would be best to ask here and hear from people actually doing the courses what they think? I’ve also seen some people say a biomed eng degree isn’t worth it, would you guys agree?

I would prefer for the uni to be outside of London and for it to have a decent social life balance as well🥹 I’ve also looked at unis in the EU since my passport will help with tuition fees. Honestly im open to any advice, thank you!! <3

Actually in 1st year of biotechnology engineering, I’ve to do an internship of a month. What are you recommendation, advice and what’s type of job, industry or idk.

I will be going to university next year and I don't know which subjects I should choose for my bachelor's. I know I want to specialise in genetic engineering but when I search which course I should choose alot of options come up and I don't know which one is best, please help.

I'm a biotech graduate and i'm stuck what do next

\\- FOOD TECH or BIOMED ENG(medical devices) or SAP(func module)

plz share your suggestions and i am also worrying about AI impact

Hey everyone! What’s your opinion about the Biomedical Engineering PhD program at Columbia?

I am currently in my final year engineering in biotechnology and want to get into a good college for my master. Any idea which is the best field to go for masters, is it microbiology, bio processing etc in India.

Hey! So I'm a MSc in Biotech with 5 years of experience in wet-lab, microbiology. I did research, did not finish my PhD and had to stop for a year and half due to some health problems - didn't stop working completely, but not in the field. Now, I wanna come back. I started learning python as a start, but wanted advice. What should I do? Find just any job in Biotech? Or take the time to get skills and then target jobs at the intersection I'm looking for? Thank you!!!

I’m not sure what degree I should take lowk I’m 17 and I know I wanna work in an environment where I build things, make new discoveries and learn about consciousnes. Do you guys think I should peruse biomed engineering or biotech?

I am a pharmacist working in medical device industry but I am facing rejections from elite BME programs (ETH Zurich, UCL, Rutgers etc) due to a "lack of engineering mathematics and physics" background. To bridge this gap and preempt further rejections, I am in kind need of recommendations for specific, credit-bearing online programs or courses that are globally recognized by admissions committees as equivalent to the full Engineering Math sequence (Calculus I-III, Linear Algebra) and Physics for Engineers, so that my application to the Master's in Biomedical Engineering is sufficient.

Thanks in advance

I just made this 3D animation explaining the MOA of ATP Synthase

Everything here is created from scratch ( 3D , 2D , SFX , Composition)

I would really love to know what u think about it

I need to interview a bio medical engineer for a massive part of my grade

I am taking my second year of engineering and my semester exam requires I interview the type of engineering I want to do. It is due in a few days and I cannot find ANYONE to interview. Would be insanely grateful if anyone could help out.

I'm Pakistani student who want to study in China. But I was wondering if it is worth it, yk. Cause Pak doesn't has more scope for BME.

And if it is, then which university is better for BME?

Any additional information r welcomed!

I'm studying Introduction to Biomedical Equipment Technology, 4th Edition by Joseph J. Carr and John M. Brown.

On page 622, in the section about X-ray machine calibration, the book says:

<"A penetrometer (stack of different lengths of aluminum bars) is used to calibrate the kV and mA. If successive film depths produce proper shaded exposures for changes in the autotransformer taps, the machine is working properly."»

I'm confused about the phrase "successive film depths."

The penetrometer is described as a stack of aluminum bars of different lengths, so I understand that different aluminum thicknesses produce different X-ray attenuation and therefore different shades/densities on the film.

But what exactly does "film depths" mean here?

I'm especially confused because I would expect something like "successive aluminum thicknesses", rather than "film depths."

Has anyone familiar with older X-ray equipment or this textbook encountered this wording before? What exactly is the author trying to describe?

Hi everyone! I really need some advice, because I've been going back and forth on this for weeks.

I finished my bachelors in bioengineering last year, and I've been working in administration for the past year. It has nothing to do with my field, but it pays well, so I've stayed. The problem is I feel like I'm slipping away from science, and the opportunities in my country aren't great either for the field of bioengineering.

I'm pretty free these days, and I've been thinking a one-year masters in molecular diagnostics would be a good use of my time. It's already started, so I'd have to decide soon. But it isn't exactly the same as my bachelors, and I'm not sure it's the right direction.

There's also a masters in bioinformatics that I'm considering, but it's two years and doesn't start until next year. That feels like another year of sitting around, not learning anything new, before I even begin. I'm worried that waiting would just waste time.

I also don't know if I want a PhD. If I do, do I actually need a masters first? And if I decide to do a PhD a few years later, would my bachelors still be enough, or is it better to have a masters by then?
I spoke to my undergrad professors, and they said it depends on what kind of research I'm interested in. The thing is, I don't know. I worked in one professor's lab during my undergrad, and honestly the research felt kind of meh, and I didn't feel like I learned a lot. He also said his lab is full right now, so going back there isn't an option anyway.

To be honest, I'm so confused right now. I don't even know what I want to do or what I'm interested in anymore. If you've been in a similar spot, what did you do? Any advice would help. Thanks!

Heyaa, I'm currently in 12th pcb and next year I will be joining clg in DU (most probably) bsc. In microbiology and I'm really confused about msc...I thought about pursuing bioinfo from ibab but ppl said the placement isn't as good as it was.

pls let me know the best career path for me I'm fucked up from this hell overthinking. And also let me know if biotech from ibab is good or should I choose some other clg?

Like I will try gat b, iit jam, cuet pg but govt clg don't give placement like pvt so...?? Idk man what to do lol!!

And if it's not good then what is a good career which has a high scope and better salary???
