Book
A career in biomedical engineering / by Melissa Abramovitz.
"Biomedical engineers work in one of the fastest-growing engineering fields. Their work involves applying principles of engineering and biology to design and create devices, drugs, and other products and technologies that improve health care. While biomedical engineering is a fairly new engineering discipline, biomedical engineers do the same types of things that other engineers have done for thousands of years. The International Federation of Consulting Engineers defines engineers as problem solvers, organizers, calculators and designers. They are capable of clearly defining a problem and its relevant constraints (such as time, cost, etc) and providing a simple solution."-- Provided by publisher.
