Key to Success
Biomedical Engineering Course

According to their interest and basic knowledge, students are encouraged to select each main study area from:
  1) electrical/electronic/information engineering,
  2) mechanical/material engineering, and
  3) biological/chemical/environmental engineering.
And they are recommended to systematically take subjects in each area for achieving their goals.

Examples of subjects for students having interest in electrical engineering, electronics, and information science:

1st year: Electrical engineering I, II
2nd year: Electronic engineering; Biomedical measurement engineering I, II; Introduction to diagnostic instrumentation
3rd year: System engineering

Examples of subjects for students having interest in mechanical engineering and materials science:

1st year: Biomaterial engineering
2nd year: Mechanical engineering; Applied mechanics; Therapeutic devices; Artificial organs I, II
3rd year: Biomechanics

Examples of subjects for students having interest in biology, chemistry, and environmental science:

1st year: Basic chemistry; Biochemistry; Experiments of biology; Immunology
2nd year: Molecular biology; Pharmacology; Pathology
3rd year: Biotechnology; Living environmental science
Clinical Engineering Course

In addition to the subjects for the Biomedical Engineering Couse, students of the Clinical Engineering Course have to take such subjects as "Clinical training in hospitals" for practical training on patients and "Practice of clinical engineering" that is a preparatory class for "Clinical training in hospitals".

3rd year: Practice of clinical engineering
4th year: Special lecture on clinical engineering I, II; Practice of basic medicine; Clinical training
Regerative Medical Engineering Course

In addition to the subjects for the Biomedical Engineering Couse having interest in biology, chemistry, and environmental science, students have to take subjects to master cell culturing techniques.

3rd year: Cell biology, Regenerative medical engineering, Practice of Regenerative medical engineering
Common Subjects to Both Courses

1st year: Information processing I, II; Physics laboratory
2nd year: Experiments of biomedical engineering I, II
3rd year: Seminar on basic skills for resarch
4th year: Graduation thesis (for biomedical engineering and regenerative medical engineering courses)
Examples of elective subjects:
1st year: Applied mathematics I, II; Basic physics; Physiology; Anatomy
2nd year: Introduction to medical science; Laws and regulations for biomedical engineering
3rd year: Outline of clinical medicine I, II; Engineering for biomedical safty I, II
4th year: Introduction to nursing; Outline of clinical medicine III, IV
