| The Biomedical Engineering Technology (Co-op Fast Track) program will allow you to use your college or university electronics background to gain direct admission into the second year (semester three) of the three-year program and receive your diploma in two years (four semesters plus two work terms). The biomedical equipment industry, engineering and scientific disciplines have merged, resulting in innovations within the healthcare system that benefit society as a whole. Currently, there is a great need for qualified professionals in biomedical engineering. As such, you will be trained through an optimum balance between theory and hands-on labs with ever-present technical problem solving that will ensure you are industry-ready upon graduation.
The program will integrate various principles including electronics, computers, embedded microcontrollers, chemical, biology, medicine, health and product engineering in the design of medical equipment, rehabilitation and health improvement devices. You will have the opportunity to enhance your School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science training through the co-op component, which will see you work as a paid employee in the field. The experience will not only allow you to put classroom learning into practice, but will also provide valuable contacts for future careers.
