Requirements:Knowledge of basic concepts in electronics, signal processing, computer science, and telecommunications.
Goal:Students will master the basic terminology and concepts in the field of biomedical engineering. They will understand the operating principles of selected biomedical devices, become familiar with the fundamental tasks in clinical and biomedical engineering, and be able to independently perform certain tasks. They will also develop a critical thinking in relation to new technologies and acquire a foundation for further professional development.
Outcome:Students will be equipped with basic knowledge to work in the field of biomedical and clinical engineering, as well as prepared for further professional development in the area, with an emphasis on the use, maintenance, and development of devices used in healthcare.
