Why this career?
In our country, due to the lack of professionals in this engineering, the demand for the corresponding services and professionals are covered by other Engineers. This reality forces many companies (especially medical centers) to make a significant investment in training, typically of a technical nature, limiting the skills necessary for the optimal use of healthcare technology and support services for medical professionals.
What can you work on?
Design and production of biomedical and electromedical equipment and instruments.
Researcher and coordinator of bioinformatics.
Rehabilitation engineering (technical aids, assistance technology, orthosis and prosthesis).
Maintenance engineer for the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical equipment industry, hospitals, research centers for human, animal and plant medicine.
Commercial promoter of medical equipment in national or foreign companies.
Investor in health systems for the acquisition of biomedical technologies.
