BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

All Nations University is one of the universities in Ghana which has over the years since 2005 produced highly equipped Biomedical engineers with good Christian values across the country.

The Department seeks to train and equip the students with the needed skills in engineering practices relevant to the medical sector. Biomedical engineering is a journey of engineering applications in the medical field as they are responsible for manufacturing, maintaining, and decommissioning of medical devices. They also take part in medical imaging through the application of engineering principles to solve healthcare problems. They have been trailblazers in the medical arena through the development of artificial organs and implants for the human body. Our Biomedical engineers work in a wide area of settings and there are many different career paths including industry, academia, entrepreneurship, and medicine within Ghana and abroad.

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.
