Biomedical Engineering

BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

The Department of Biomedical Engineering was established in 2006 (the first in west Africa) for the purpose of contributing to the Healthcare Technology Management and Maintenance with well-equipped Clinical Engineers to facilitate over the Biomedical Engineering Units in the healthcare services. The Department curriculum of Hands-on-Training always put students on limelight whenever they are on the job market, various hospitals and companies within Ghana and its borders.

MISSION: Our mission is to combine the design and problem-solving skills of Engineering with medical, biological science and technology to improve healthcare diagnosis and treatment.
