church family provided a consistent support system that I could go to with my joys and concerns. Similarly, they all have helped me grow in my faith, and I want to be able to incorporate my faith in my vocation. Currently, I’m studying to become a biomedical engineer, but I had previously wanted to be a forensic scientist. I have always had this love for math, science, and problem solving and I thought that forensic science could be what I wanted to do with my life. After touring a crime lab in…

To a biomedical engineer, research provides the opportunity to understand how the human body operates and the ability to develop treatment options to improve the health of human beings. Personally, I feel that research gives me the power to make a direct impact on helping those who are suffering. Additionally, it provides a different skill set that cannot be obtained in any course offered at the university which makes me value my experiences even more. From what I have learned since last year…

create a better tomorrow, it is important to learn to integrate what I have learned in my science classes to applicable research. I hope to achieve this by interning in a research lab through MS INBRE. If given an opportunity to contribute to the biomedical field, I will be able to contribute to the research that can potentially help hundreds of thousands of people who suffer from Lyme disease. I plan to work in Dr. Karim’s lab for…

Between new housemade gadgets and dismembered household appliances (seven year old me liked to experiment by taking apart household objects), it wasn’t long until my parents knew they had an engineer on their hands. Then I became enlightened by the biomedical sciences during the biochemistry unit in my 9th grade biology class. One day a would-be 30-minute tutorial turned into a three-hour lesson. I asked every question in my arsenal: How can gene targeting help prevent disease? What are genetic…

where the exciting world of biomedical engineering comes in. A creative, curious problem solver who loves to know now things work, a person that is interested in medicine and has a mind to build things. These would be some of the features needed to be able to handle such a major from the start which is studying till the end of working. Biomedical engineering tends to aid many people and that really appealed to me, that I would have a great impact on society. As a biomedical major you will build…

use my knowledge and understanding to help others in need. In order for me to achieve my goals I believe the biomedical field is a course that best…

Biomedical equipment technicians or medical equipment repairers troubleshoot, install, and maintain medical devices used in patient treatment and diagnosis. Projections show that the growth of biomedical equipment technician jobs will be excellent in the coming years. The majority of medical equipment repairers hold at least a 2-year associate's degree in biomedical technology, although a 4-year bachelor's degree may be needed for career advancement. Required Education Associate's or bachelor's…
