Vision
We aspire to build a department with both local and global recognition in the fields of biomedical engineering. This will be achieved through the continuous pursuit of knowledge, curriculum integration, structural robustness, and competition in the comprehensive development of the department at all levels. We aim to enhance current participation in biomedical engineering research in collaboration with prestigious universities, international conferences, and global journals in the field, while adhering to the cultural, scientific, and ethical values that prevail in society across generations, contributing to sustainable development in all aspects.
Mission
The department aims to graduate engineering professionals with a Bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering who are capable of managing bioengineering-related systems, equipment, and applications effectively and efficiently. They will ensure the provision of high-quality medical engineering services and collaborate with medical professionals in hospitals and healthcare centers. Moreover, the department’s graduate studies and research projects focus on conducting modern practical research, ensuring a high level of theoretical and practical research capabilities to contribute to the country’s development.
Goals
The study period in the department is five years, including practical training in hospitals and maintenance centers during the summer vacation in the last two years of study, which provides the graduate with the ability to contribute to the following:
- Design, manufacture, development and maintenance of medical devices and equipment in addition to medical measurement and diagnostic devices.
- Design and manufacture of human prosthetic organs and properties of materials used in their manufacture.
- Acquiring the basic skills that qualify him to prepare the requirements for designing modern hospitals and health centers and addressing doctors to cover the basic requirements and needs in the precise medical specialty.
- Supervision of the medical engineer on all medical devices in all hospital departments, including operating room devices.
- Managing the medical devices file, especially estimating the exact need according to the needs of the medical institution, setting the technical specifications for it, and discussing with the specialized companies the optimal mechanism for working on these devices.
- Setting technical standards for accrediting companies specialized in importing medical devices that deal with the Ministry of Health according to modern scientific foundations that take into account the medical and engineering fields.
- Working on implementing the quality system for the operation of medical devices, medical equipment and occupational safety.
