WHAT IS BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING? 🦾 thoughts from a first year bme student

[@Mike1carver]

I’m having a really tough time in grade 11, deciding courses and just overall what I want to do. I would love to become a bio engineer but I don’t think I am smart enough for it. I love Bio and physics but I suck at chem :( Having to decide what I want to do and the courses needed for this specific field is killing me

[@floguo]

hey, you still have lots of time to learn! honestly, if you have a keen interest in bme, chemistry will just come over lots of time and practice. I know that I personally struggled with physics in grade 10 (when I took grade 11 physics), but I kept going at it with physics 12 and IB physics HL until it was my absolute favourite course. best of luck w course selections and applications! you got this :)

I’m not good at math, chemistry, biology and physics 😂 I applied for Biomedical Engineering and I hope to learn a lot and hopefully I’ll be able to manage everything mentally and emotionally. Just start and try, and then we’ll see if it’s for us ❤

[@Mike1carver]

@@Mina9135 me sitting here going into the arts 👀 LMAO congratulations to you for going into bioengineering that’s a big achievement. I wish that was the path for me but sometimes it’s good to know where you will excel at and places where you might fall short. For me it was the former. Wishing you an awesome time at your studies

@@floguo LOL its only at like 50% rn something something 225% 🤔

[@danyliv2028]

@floguo how many credits are each course? I'm very confused with engineering studies in America. It's so different from where I'm from (Belgium, Europe). Here every engineers have 1 and 1/2 year together with the same courses. Then we have to chose 2 options (I took chemical and biomedical engineering) for 1 and 1/2 year too. Then we can chose from the 2 which field we take for the master. So messed up lmao. 1 year is 60 ECTS (credits). I usually have 6 courses per semester. Anyway I was wondering if you have as much credits as well for 4 years therefore learning way more biomedical related subjects than us. Or if you have less workload and therefor we are just learning more than we should because of the mandatory 2 options and the 1 and 1/2 year of mandatory courses. Sorry for my bad English

[@nycto16]

lol engineering? Business has the most courses and credit hours.

I have heard that it is better to study another engineering like mechanical or electrical engineering and then doing a master in biomedical engineering. What should I do? Is it easy to find a job? Greetings from Spain

[@hildonomyme1810]

Did you found an answer ?

[@estelasuarez1585]

@@hildonomyme1810 not really. I just choose biomed. Now, I am at first year. My teachers say that it is a good degree, with a high probability of finding a job in the future. If I were you, I would choose which of them you like the most. Biomed is a broad and interesting field

[@floguo]

I would say it depends! If you know that you want to work in health but don’t know which facet yet, I’d choose BME. Otherwise, if you’re determined to do a specific type of engineering, I’d choose a more specific discipline :) All the best with your studies!

[@estelasuarez1585]

@@hildonomyme1810 i just chosed what I liked the most, and that was BIOMED. Trust me, engineering it's a hard degree so at least choose one that you are interested in. BIOMED it's really interesting and I'm sure you'll find a job.

[@aliahmeterdogdu9399]

Your video is so exciting. I just saw it. Do you have a video about how can we improve ourself in bme? I am studying bme in Turkey, as well. I love this major. If you do not have any video about I said, could you record and upload ? It would be fantastic

[@미국남고딩욱이]

What a great video! I had one question by the way, I am a Junior in high school and taking many classes related to biology and doing lots of health care extracurricular activities, but I haven't taken many computer sciences or engineering subjects. (I took just one AP computer science class, lots of math, statistic, and physics. Do you think since I haven't done any extracurricular activities for codings and computer science, I will be limited to the chance of entering BME major in college? Thank you! and I am getting tons~~~ of information from you :) Thanks for making this great video, once again 😄🥰

[@floguo]

I'm glad you found this helpful :) Honestly, you can definitely take this summer/time before uni applications to explore personal projects or join new organizations. Since you've already done AP CS, trying to build a health-related app and shipping it would be a great place to start. As long as you're involved with other extracurriculars, it doesn't really matter whether you have CS experience prior to uni - I definitely didn't have much coding expertise in high school haha Best of luck!!

Quick question: does Waterloo require some sort of essay when applying as an undergraduate? Or do they just look at your grades?

[@floguo]

Waterloo also requires a supplementary application (admissions information form) comprised of around 5-7 short answer/paragraph responses :)

[@someone6429]

Am I able to study extreme type of physics lessons in BME?

[@floguo]

hey there! do you mind specifying what you mean by extreme types of physics? I'd note that I only have one elective per year in first and second year. you can always use one of these slots for an additional physics elective (we take statics I in first year and dynamics in second). you can find a list of the approved electives here: uwaterloo.ca/engineering/undergraduate-students/academic-support/complementary-studies-list

[@Mrtz_Tony]

In the beginning of undergrad, you cover core engineering courses: math, physics chemistry. You also cover biology. Further into the program you cover basic circuits, programming, material science, mechanical analysis. Depending on your interests and college program, the rest can vary.

Hey, I just want to ask for your opinion. I’m good at chemistry but I suck at Biotech 1 (as a highschool student) and I want to be in biomedical. I feel like because I suck at biotech I won’t stand a chance in Biomedical and it’s crushing my soul lol. What do you think? Should I just give it time?

[@floguo]

Definitely give it a shot! I find that in my degree, I don't actually do a ton of biotech stuff -- mostly typical engineering courses with bme applications and the odd engineering biology or anatomy/physiology course. Though, it definitely depends on your program of choice, as they may have different courseloads. If you end up not liking BME, I also know people who have transferred into other engineering programs as well. Best of luck! :)
