About the Department

Vision:

Our vision includes innovative and quality in biomedical engineering applicable education and research at the German Jordanian University.

Mission:

Utilizing the German dimension equipping the students with a solid biomedical engineering knowledge base, advancing the German Jordanian University through applied biomedical scientific research, and linking the university with biomedical industry by keeping up to date with current developments in the BME field in the local and international markets. In addition to serving the BME profession and the different BME related healthcare facilities through the academic advancement and skill development of BME students, as well as, technology transfer to industry and continuous workforce training in Jordan and Germany.

Program Objectives:

Biomedical Engineering program emphasizes the application of technologies and tools in the short term, and the ability to discover, acquire, and adapt new knowledge and skills in the long term, such that our graduates are prepared to:

• Perform Advanced studies leading to research or professional practice in the Health and Medical Sciences.
• Apply the knowledge and skills in biomedical engineering industries or related technical and professional fields available in Jordan and at our partners in Germany.
• Apply quantitative, analytical, software and hardware methods which help in better understanding of basic biological processes and to develop innovative techniques for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases.
• Create an excellence in undergraduate education, meaningful and innovative research, and service dedicated to advancing the field of Biomedical Engineering.
