This week, we learned mainly about biomedical and electrical engineering.
Biomedical Engineering connects engineering principles and medical sciences to design innovative solutions for human health. Usually, this course of study analyzes biological systems through a technical lens to develop life-saving devices such as pacemakers, artificial organs, and advanced diagnostic imaging machinery. This field is at the intersection of biology, material science, and mechanical design and is used to greatly improve patient care.
Electrical engineering focuses on the practical application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism to power our world and transmit data. It is responsible for most our our modern technology, aiding the design of everything from the microscopic integrated circuits inside smartphones to the macro-level power grids that sustain entire cities. Additionally, it serves as the foundation for modern computing, telecommunications, robotics, and renewable energy systems.
