Definition of Biomedical Engineering Biomedical Engineering- They study how living things work. They do research and perform experiments to reconstruct robotic surgical instruments.

What a biomedical engineer does… 1) Design and test new materials, devices, and equipment;including programming electronics and trouble-shooting problems 2) Research to solve clinical problems. They do hands-on and practical experiments that help people with disabilities live safely and independently 3) Discussing and solving problems with manufacturing, quality, purchasing, and marketing department
