Biomedical Engineering (Teknik Biomedika) is a multidisciplinary field, involving various engineering, scientific and technological methods to solve problems in biology & medicine for the improvement of the community health-care.


This is a growing field that continues to significantly contribute on health-care. Biomedical systems provide supports the medical professionals in conducting the medical procedures, which include: collecting of data/information, analysis, diagnosis, and therapy.To study the interdisciplinary branch of engineering, we are required to learn basic science and engineering, which include: basic & advanced electronics and computer, anatomy and physiology, biomedical physics, biomedical transducers and instrumentation, biomedical system design and projects. Various choice subjects and non-engineering subjects are also required to be studied. Biomedical engineering also involves learning about biology in new ways and developing new equipment or methods to help the diagnosis and therapy, or to repair diseased organs.

More and more students choose biomedical engineering to be of service to the community and for the excitement of working in medical/health-care environment. Biomedical engineering is multidisciplinary; that is biomedical engineers work in synergy with other medical health care professionals as member of a team. Modern advances in medicine, such as: artificial pancreas, implanted pacemaker, cochlear implant, medical imaging equipment & techniques, and telemedicine system, are examples of team efforts by biomedical engineers and other professionals.
