  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BME 402, BME 425. Laboratory investigation of biomedical instrumentation and signal analysis. Basic experiments in biofluid and thermal transport. Design and conduct of experiments using modern techniques, skills and tools.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: BME 440 or MAE 430 (or permission of instructor) The course objectives continue to build on advanced theories and solution techniques related to biological fluid flow phenomena primarily concentrating on the flows in cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Topics covered include: hemodynamics in carotid artery bifurcations, coronary arteries, abdominal bifurcations, arterial anastomoses, and air-particle transport in the lung airways. Computational fluid dynamics modeling and simulation are the tools to solve the flow phenomena numerically. A group project report and presentation, in the form of a conference paper/presentation, are required.

    Prerequisites: BIO 205 or BIO 220 or BIO 211, CHM 221, EGR 232. Chemical and physical properties of metals, polymers, and ceramics for use in biomedical applications. Biological corrosion of materials, and response of living tissue to foreign substances. Criteria for evaluation of materials for prostheses and artificial organs. Design considerations for implantable prostheses materials.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: EGR 245. Interface of memory and other devices such as analog-to-digital converters and digital-toanalog converters to microcontroller chips. Selection and assembly-language programming of microcontrollers for interfacing to peripherals. Design of microcomputer systems for medical use. Includes laboratory exercises and design projects.
  • 0.00 Credits

    Co-requisite/Prerequisite: BME 402, BME 425, EGR 312, and TCO 341. Course will provide guidance for the selection of team members and topic for the senior design project to be completed in BME 487 and BME 488. To successfully complete the course, a student must belong to a team (3 to 4 persons) and briefly outline the project goals to be implemented in BME 487 and BME 488. A seminar series will be conducted to facilitate student introduction to potential industrial clients and projects. Seminar attendance is required to obtain a satisfactory course grade. This course is graded S/U.
