I believe that I am well-suited to attend this camp because I am determined, work hard, and want to make the world better. To begin with, attending the past engineering camps are some significant events in my life that have made me want to be
There are two engineering careers that interest me, biomedical or civil engineering. I know they may seem completely different, but due to the fact I take some classes in the engineering field, and some in the medical field, I still have not decided which way to go. A biomedical engineer creates equipment, devices, computer systems, and software used in healthcare, while a civil engineer designs, builds and supervises construction projects such as bridges, buildings, airports, and many more. A
Academically, I’m primarily interested in biomedical and materials engineering. Johns Hopkins has the best biomedical engineering program in the country, and undergraduates have the opportunity to study BME, traditionally and through research. More importantly, the emphasis on interdepartmental collaboration, and student collaboration in general, makes it an ideal learning environment for me. I learn best when I work with others to create something better than any of us could come up with alone.
top-tier, and highly qualified: those are the first three things I think of when I think of the engineering program at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. There are many things that attract me to the undergraduate College of the Engineering, but the opportunities available, the commitment to societal issues, and the rigor of academics are what put it amongst the top. The College of Engineering at the University of Michigan is unique because of the level of commitment it has towards offering
Biomedical Engineering Introduction: Biomedical engineer’s job is to analyze and design solutions to problems in biology and medicine, with the goal of improving the effeciveness and quality of patient care. Bioengineering, is the application of engineering principles to the fields of health care and biology. Biomedical engineers work with researchers and doctors to develop systems, equipment and devices in order to solve clinical problems. Biomedical engineering is the application of the principles
1. How have you developed as a learner/thinker? I am currently working as an IT Systems Administrator with the Air National Guard and Department of Defense; I decided to go back to school to get a full understanding of the field of Information Technology to advance in my place of employment and mentor younger airmen under me. Taking IT courses has helped me comprehend how each component of a computer operates, how to manage a network and server, how a router and switch works, and how to write code
Each week, I shadow a Biomedical Technician, performing functionality tests and repairing an array of biomedical equipment. This internship has not only supplied me with an understanding about becoming a Biomedical Engineer, but it has also given me experience within a field that will be affected by my future decisions,. Learning to operate the equipment has given me rare insight into problems I will have to explore and has further inspired my endeavors. Biomedical Engineers play a significant
