Job Growth in Biomedical Engineering
“Biomedical engineers are expected to have employment growth of 72 percent over the projections decade, much faster than the average for all occupations.+” In 2010, msnbc announced that biomedical engineering is the fastest growing profession in the United States. The job of biomedical engineer is at the top of the fastest-growing occupation list, and interestingly, equally accessed by both males and females.

Further Studies    

Our graduates since 2004 are all academically inclined and about 30~35% of them (depending on which year) are now in universities. Between 35~48% are in National Service, with many of them already holding placements in the local universities. In 2007, we had a record number of 65% of our graduate having placements in the university within the first year of graduation.

The Biomedical Engineering Diploma is recognised by many universities. The BME Diploma holder therefore gains advanced standing in tertiary institutions, saving up to 2 years of studies, depending on the course and the university
