As a recent graduate from Old Dominion University with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and a minor in Physics, I possess the academic background necessary to qualify me continue my education. Though a majority of my courses during undergrad focused on power systems and electromagnetics, I also completed multiple courses in bioelectrics in addition to my required engineering and math classes. These courses served as a strong introduction into the interdisciplinary relationship between engineering and the medical field and thus peaked my initial interest in biomedical engineering. My specific interests include nanomedicine, neuroengineering and brain-computer
My larger vision is becoming a biomedical engineer. What interests me most about the field is the intricate combination of two seemingly opposite characteristics. Engineers are sometimes seen as people who are on an elevated level of intelligence, but a below average sense of interpersonality. As a Biomedical Engineer, you are required to interact closely with patient. It’s impossible to complete a job without getting to know a patient. You have to identify their ailment or whatever else may be troubling them, and incorporate different levels of math, science, and technology to resolve the issue at
Engineering is a wildly divest carrer from creating applicances to medical equitment. iTs a career that is always changing . The main reason I want to go into biomedical enegerring is bacause i think that it would be intressting and because i have always had a intrease in mathamatics and biology and being a biomdical enegreer would allow me to incoprateoth bit of these subjects into dsily life. Becomin a biomidcal engerrin would offer me with many opprotuinty. One of whice is working in many different enviroment from labs to hospitals to univesaty. Like stated before enginring is a career that is always chaning so a enggeere will alway have to lear more on more that one sunject and sometimes out side his or her inically fildes. Also it offer
I was drawn to engineering by the potential for creativity and an enjoyment of the pursuit of knowledge in science. This course of study did not come easy to me though, and as I worked further through my major, I realized that the rewards for my efforts were not as fulfilling as I once thought they would be. To me, engineering lacks the interpersonal relationships, the person to person interactions, that are prevalent throughout medicine. I want to make a difference in people’s lives first hand, and pass on the same hope that was given to me. Determined to finish what I had started, I obtained my engineering degree and turned my focus toward continuing education in pre-medical science. The values and lessons that I learned as an engineering student have built a solid problem-solving foundation on which I can excel as a medical student and professional. As engineering students, we analyzed mechanical and chemical systems and used our knowledge of the physical characteristics and forces of these systems to predict and prevent potential failures. If a failure was unable to be prevented, a failure analysis would be conducted using a bottom-up approach to compile all the data and determine a cause. These practices are congruent with those in the medical field. At their basis, biological systems are a product of physical and chemical phenomena. As a continuing education student
My interest and curiosity are mostly focused on being able to diagnose quickly and efficiently the: needs, illnesses, or perhaps diseases of an individual, and recommend and provide the most current and advanced treatment that ensures them the quickest route to overall health and well-being. My passion and curiosity on these issues has been formed, reinforced, and refined by numerous factors. These include; volunteer work at Children’s Hospital, undergoing very sophisticated and extensive surgical reconstruction myself, and lengthy and detailed discussions with many healthcare professionals, including the US’s leading orthopedic surgeon, and my father, who has a PhD in Molecular Genetics and has worked in healthcare for over forty years. Additionally, by far the most intriguing and interesting subjects in school, for me, have been the basic sciences, such as biology, chemistry, physics, and anatomy, the latter giving me appreciation for the complexity of the human body and its systems.
When it came to choosing the profession for my research paper I eagerly choose biomedical sales. My father works in business development for a company that packages drugs. Because of this background and always hearing him tell me I would make a good salesperson helped show me down the right path as to my future career. But at the time I still wanted to be an orthopedic surgeon. It was only until I went and interned under Dr. Jay Jansen, an orthopedic surgeon for Blue Ridge Bone and Joint did I figure out I wanted to be a biomedical salesman. I was able to observe many surgeries and learn much about the profession and other professions such as biomedical salesmen. I was fortunate enough to meet and have fruitful conversations with representatives
Someone always has a goal in their life they want to pursuit, it doesn’t matter how small or how big it’s, theirs always a goal. In my life there was always one goal, science. My goals, which I hope I achieve in the next ten year, are notability for my biomedical engineering skills. This will be accomplished through college, getting my master's degree and hard work and of course it won’t be easy but who said the life was easy.
These courses in biophysics helped shape and clarify my view of medical imaging, and where I desire to be in this
However, the undergraduate program in biomedical engineering is a minor that must be paired with one of the following engineering majors: computer, electrical, mechanical, interdisciplinary or product design and manufacturing.
