Yes, colleges do provide placements to BTech in BME graduates at the end of the course duration, with top recruiters visiting the college campuses either via the college placement drives or annual placement fairs to hire talented students who could bring innovation and a fresh approach to the field of healthcare and medicine. They extend healthy salaries to skilled students who possess the right skill set and knowledge.
BTech Biomedical Engineering syllabus introduces students to multiple important topics like Bioelectronics, where one could think of inserting a chip underneath their skin that would constantly read the vitals of the entire body, and Biomaterials, where students will study how different foreign substances react with the human body and what is biocompatible with it. Furthermore, Computational Biology is also there which teaches students to effectively analyze the data, such as the X-ray scan report, and Medical Imaging, to use the information received through images to detect injuries or other health problems.
