International Biomedical Engineering Program with University of Toledo, USA

Admissions through JEE and NEET

Biomedical Engineering is the fastest growing engineering that deals with medicine, education, and human quality of life issues. It is an interdisciplinary field that integrates scientific principles of physics, chemistry biology and mathematics with the other conventional engineering fields (e.g. mechanical, electrical, chemical, and computer engineering) and new breakthrough methods developed in recent years.

Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (TIET) Patiala offers an International Biomedical Engineering Program (BME) from the session 2019-20. The institute has signed an MOU with University of Toledo (UT), USA https://www.utoledo.edu/engineering/bioengineering/. This is a joint program between Electrical and Instrumentation Engineering Department, TIET Patiala and Bioengineering Department, University of Toledo, USA.
