Overview

The Biomedical Engineering Technology (Fast Track) program will be beneficial if you have a college or university electronics background. Your past education will allow you direct admission into the second year (third semester) of this three-year diploma program to receive an advanced diploma in two years (four semesters).

The Biomedical Engineering Technology courses, facilitated through the School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science, combine engineering with medicine. You’ll use technical problem-solving skills while learning about biomedical engineering principles, among which will be:

  • Electronics
  • Computers
  • Embedded microcontrollers
  • Chemistry
  • Biology
  • Medicine
  • Health
  • Product engineering in the design of medical equipment, rehabilitation and health improvement devices

The merger between the biomedical equipment industry, engineering and scientific disciplines have seen innovations within the health care system that require qualified professionals in biomedical engineering. The program continuously evolves to reflect the ever-growing innovations in the industry, upgrading its curriculum to do so. As a Biomedical Engineering Technology graduate, you’ll be in demand!

Co-op Option

The co-op option will allow you to gain hands-on experience while you complete two co-op work terms as an employee in the field. This experience not only allows you to put classroom learning into practice but will also provide valuable contacts for your future career.

To participate in this co-op option, you must complete an application process in the first semester. If academically qualified, you may be admitted to the co-op program.

When you graduate, your diploma will highlight the co-op credential.
