Is Biomedical Science a popular field to study and does it pay much?
Biomedical science is a field that crosses several disciplines. You could think of it as sort of a combination of chemical and mechanical engineering and biology. A Biomedical Engineering degree comprises basic engineering courses plus basic medical courses such as physiology, anatomy, and biocompatibility. Biomedical engineers design and build a broad array of medical instrumentation and devices. There are great opportunities designing, making and delivering medical device technology. For example, pacemakers, catheters, stents, imaging equipment (x-ray, mri, ultrasound, etc.), artificial hearts, dialysis machines, diagnostic equipment, artificial joints, and vascular grafts are some of the devices that biomedical engineers help produce. Biomedical Engineering is a great field. Biomedical is actually one of the best engineering fields to enter. It is a growth field and is one of the most recession proof areas of the economy. It is particularly a good field if you go into the higher end
