Department of Biomedical Engineering

Hello, my name is Mustafa ALKAN. I am a 3rd year student at Izmir Bakırçay University, Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, Department of Biomedical Engineering. Biomedical engineering can be defined as the application of engineering science in medicine. In particular, the use of engineering solution methods in health and medicine is the basis of biomedical engineering. Biomedical engineering is located on the main campus of Izmir Bakırçay University in Menemen Seyrek. The courses given in biomedical engineering in general can be divided into two, in the field of medicine and engineering. In the medical field, there may be courses such as anatomy and physiology, as well as cell culture techniques. In addition, we have engineering courses such as statics, digital electronics, circuit analysis. In our department, we have one compulsory internship and one vocational training program. Our vocational training program lasts approximately 6 months. Our compulsory internship lasts 20 days. If we finish these programs, we are entitled to graduation. The main areas where we can work when we graduate from our department are especially health institutions and clinics. At the same time, there may be workshops, production places and factories where biomedical productions are made. One of the main reasons why I chose the department of biomedical engineering is my desire to touch human life, the combination of health and engineering. The reason why I prefer Izmir Bakırçay University is that especially biomedical companies are very common in Izmir and the university is also located in Izmir. Some of the areas I benefited the most while studying in the biomedical engineering department are the experienced teaching staff. We have many experienced academicians who contribute to us both in our projects and in our working life. In addition, the fact that our laboratories are open to students and academics and that the working environment is pleasant is one of the main motivating things.My goal after graduating from the Department of Biomedical Engineering is to establish my own biomedical company. In my biomedical company, I want to continue the projects, patents and publications I have realized especially during my undergraduate life. I recommend that people who are especially prone to solutions in the field of health and engineering should prefer the biomedical engineering department. My suggestions to the candidates who will prefer Izmir Bakırçay University are to benefit from its strong academic staff, student community activities and also all the opportunities of Izmir. I wish success to all candidates who will take the university exam. We welcome everyone to Izmir Bakırçay University, Department of Iomedical Engineering.
