Biomedical Engineering Course
Course Overview
Advancing the science of life and contributing to human health through biomedical engineering technologies
We cultivate individuals who can contribute to medical and welfare fields by restoring and supporting biological functions. To that end, students acquire broad specialized knowledge and skills in biomedical engineering, logical thinking ability, and a strong sense of research ethics. In addition, through research aimed at elucidating the mechanisms of life phenomena—such as development and aging—from various perspectives ranging from the molecular and genetic levels to cells and individuals, as well as through the development of science and technology that supports healthcare and daily living, students contribute to extending healthy life expectancy and improving people’s quality of life (QOL).
