Course Description:	-
Course Objectives:	This course is meant for those engineering students who have some basic exposure to electric circuits and want to deepen their knowledge in the electronics area relevant to the use and design of biomedical instruments and devices. The course will provide an overview of necessary biomedical electronics. The course will also cover biomedical sensors and biomedical devices currently in patient care. Students can also use this knowledge in other medical device classes offered by the Biomedical engineering program and become better prepared to move into the medical-device industry with a thorough understanding of biomedical devices currently used for patient care.
