BME Specialty Sequence: Biomedical
Systems and Control
This specialty sequence is intended for students interested
in those aspects of biomedical engineering that center
around the systems and control technical discipline. Expertise
in the systems and control area is, for example, central
to the design of smart prosthetic devices, including cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators, and neuromuscular prostheses
for hand, arm, and leg motion. Additionally, concepts from
systems and control form the applied mathematical and computational
basis for a number of areas in biomedical engineering,
including biomedical imaging and signal processing applications,
and the modeling and analysis of neural and brain activity,
and muscle and cardiac electrophysiology and biomechanics.
This sequence is therefore useful for graduate work in
these areas. The courses in this sequence provide the fundamental
knowledge necessary to the systems and control engineer.
Furthermore, students can obtain the informational content
of a minor in systems and control engineering.
