Leonid Epshteyn - Student: You learn a lot of fundamentals
how the human body works and what we actually measure when
we are using the medical equipment. There's a lot of electronics
in the program, so you actually understand not only what signals you're
measuring but how those signals are being measured.
Dr. Charanjit Bambra - Professor: Biomedical engineering technology is a three-year
six semester advanced diploma program.
Ronald Cole - Student: The program in itself is incredible, I must make
mention with regards to Dr. Bambra, who is making a huge impact in which the way the program is going.
I've been in the biomedical field for forty years and I've taught in all
the six continents and I joined Centennial College because I really want to be to see if I could assist in
making a world-class biomedical program.
We are doing a capstone project, its actually a two semester project. We are doing advance diploma but
you know, when you see the the quality of the project, it's kind of an engineering degree at level three.
We have started getting students trained to a point that they are able to visualize
and able to do independent projects. We are trying to see if we can get them funding
we are trying to pair them with industry, partnership and trying to expose them to a lot of applied research
aspects which many colleges wouldn't do because that's left to the universities.
In fact to we're building a device right now
for my final project, it's actually awesome, I'm excited and revved up
It's actually a scanner which is portable.
You could actually scan your meal to detect whether or not you have any allergens
What we're trying to do right now is a proof of concept prototype for a biosensor
something that can measure cardiac coup enzymes.
So, you can predict if a person is about to have a heart attack or
if they had a minor one, the proper treatment to be delivered.
The program it's incredible, it's only getting better!
