Abstract

The application of engineering principles, practices, and technologies to the fields of biology and healthcare can be regarded as bioengineering. This newly emerging field is characterized by its multidisciplinary nature, cutting across science, engineering, and medicine. Bioengineers are expected to have a solid education in engineering and sound knowledge of biology, physiology, and medicine. This short note discusses the basics of bioengineering.
