B.E. BM

The Program Mission Statement

To produce quality Biomedical engineers with high intellect and broad vision who can meet current needs and foresee future needs of the human race with regard to medical diagnosis, treatment, prosthesis, and rehabilitation through research and professional practice.       

 

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

Three Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) were prepared by SAR committee. The PEOs were prepared based on stakeholders needs and linked with twelve PLOs. The PEOs of B.E. Biomedical Engineering degree program are presented below.
 

To produce engineers with the capabilities to

  1. Work in a multidisciplinary field at the interface of engineering, medicine, and biology to design sustainable healthcare solutions. 
  2. Lead as an entrepreneur / a manager to contribute towards knowledge-based economy in the field of healthcare.
  3. Independently master new knowledge and technologies, as well as successfully engage in post-graduate studies and research in biomedical engineering and allied fields.

 

Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs)

The twelve graduate attributes provided by the PEC as per Manual of Accreditation 2014 have been adopted by the Department of Biomedical Engineering MUET, Jamshoro as the Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) for its Bachelor’s in Biomedical Engineering Program. The twelve PLOs of Engineering program are listed in Table 2.1.

PLO

Description

1

Engineering Knowledge

An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

2

Problem Analysis

An ability to identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences.

3

Design / Development of Solutions

An ability to design solutions for complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

4

Investigation

An ability to investigate complex engineering problems in a methodical way including literature survey, design and conduct of experiments, analysis and interpretation of experimental data, and synthesis of information to derive valid conclusions.

5

Modern Tool Usage

An ability to create, select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modeling, to complex engineering activities, with an understanding of the limitations.

6

The Engineer and Society

An ability to apply reasoning informed by contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to professional engineering practice and solution to complex engineering problems.

7

Environment and Sustainability

An ability to understand the impact of professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts and demonstrate knowledge of and need for sustainable development.

8

Ethics

Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of engineering practice.

9

Individual and Teamwork

An ability to work effectively, as an individual or in a team, on multifaceted and /or multidisciplinary settings.

10

Communication

An ability to communicate effectively, orally as well as in writing, on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.

11

Project Management

An ability to demonstrate management skills and apply engineering principles to one’s own work, as a member and/or leader in a team, to manage projects in a multidisciplinary environment.

12

Lifelong Learning

An ability to recognize importance of and pursue lifelong learning in the broader context of innovation and technological developments.

 

 

Mapping of PLOs to PEOs

The twelve PLOs, defined for the Biomedical Engineering program, are mapped to the three PEOs. Mapping of the PLOs to PEOs is given in Table 2.2.
