                 Biomedical engineers, or bioengineering, is 

the application of engineering principles to the fields of 

biology and health care. Biomedical engineers worked 

with docters , therapists, and researchers to develop 

systems, equipment, and devices in order to solve 

clinical problems.                   

                 They do cool things like working in labs and 

dealing with medicine (OMG

!!!! so COOL !!). In this book, 

you'll learn some amazing facts

 /information about biomedical 

engineers. 

            Biomedical engineers have a lot stuff to do 

to keep them busy.They analyze and design 

solutions problems in biology and medicine, with 

the goal of improving the quality

and effectiveness of patient care.

Also, they study how to improve

biological function through 

engineering.An artificial heart and

a magnetic resonance imaging 

machine are examples of biomedical engineering 

achievements. The career requires completion of an 

engineering degree and extensive coursework in 

biology.

             Biomedical engineers worked in offices, 

laboratories, workshops, manufacturing plants, 

clinics and hospitals. Some local travel may be 

required if medical equipment is located in various 

clinics or hospitals. Most biomedical engineers work 

standard weekdays hours.

              In their job, they worked with others to 

determined specific needs. They work in team with 

scientists, healthcare workers, or other engineers. 

For example, a biomedical engineer who has 

developed a new device designed to help a person 

with a disability to walk again might have to spend 

hours in a hospital to determine whether the device                        

the device works as planned. If the engineer finds 

a way to improve the device, the engineer might 

have to the manufacturer to help alter the 

manufacturing process to improve the design.

              Salary is another word for wages. The 

median annual wage for biomedical engineers was 

$86,960. The median wage is the wage at which 

half the workers in an occupation earned more 

than that amount or less.The lowest 10% earned 

less than $52,600, and the top 10% earned more 

than $139,450.

             To be a biomedical engineer, it contains a 

lot of responsibilities.They have to make sure 

every medical systems is checked, fixing functional 

machines is required, and test computer 

simulations that software can run through medical 

equipment. 

              They have the most 

important jobs because docter uses                         

the inventions that they create when 

operating.Making sure people's 

health is OK is important too!

         Employment of biomedical engineers is 

projected to grow 27% from 2012 to 2022, much 

faster than the average for all occupations.

             Biomedical engineer typically need 

bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering from an 

accredited program to enter the occupation. 

Biomedical engineering students should take high 

school science courses such as chemistry, physics, 

and biology. They should also take math courses, 

including calculus.Courses in drafting or mechanical 

drawing and computer programming is also useful.

              Bachelor's degree programs in biomedical 

engineering focus on engineering and biological 

sciences.Program include laboratory-based courses 

in addition to classroom-based courses in subject 

such as fluid and solid mechanics, computer
