LIFE AT NIT RAIPUR

I'm currently doing B. TECH in BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING. This course is all about medical equipments that are used in various medical fields. For example X-Ray machine, ECG machine, EEG machine etc. but it is not just about machines, anything that can help in living healthy life can be considered a a BIO-MEDICAL device like the new mattresses, acupressure slippers,etc. The course is majorly focused on electronics. And the use of electronic devices in medical field. We all went through the COVID times the machines like oximeter which helped in finding the patients is made by an BIO-MEDICAL engineer. This course just focuses on dealing with real world problems and in a way that a middle-class person could afford the devices. Faculties are very helpful. Here faculties welcomes new ideas related to the field and supports in any way possible. The exams are tough but it should be like that only because we will be dealing with a whole living person and mistakes can't be accepted.
