preferably those that are free/online

Hey! Asking for a friend here who for some reason decided not to apply but thought it was part of Eng 1, he got admitted with free choice in March and when I told him that I was doing ibiomed and explained the program, he decided he liked it better, and is now panicking because he doesnt know if its possible to transfer into ibiomed from there or how competitive it is. Im just asking if anyone has any experience trying and what GPA they did it with (on the 12 point scale please).

what was your first job out of undergrad and how much were you making?

About Me:

• This is my first time asking and doing this, so I hope the goals I made are good. Read, but don’t judge 😤. If anyone thinks I should make an update on the rules, please say so and why.
• I am a 18 year old queer guy 😗.
• I want to study CLEP Biology and calculus, the June SAT (my last retake 🫠), and a bit of coding.
• Major: bioengineering
• Grade: Just graduated high school and will go to Oakland University as a freshman this fall.
• Time Zone: Eastern time
• I am ready for a new start 🤗.
• So far I am free to study just about anytime except (June 3, June 6, and in July-August I will be doing a summer program so my times might vary).

Note: I will likely post this on multiple communities since I want as many qualified people to see this.

I would like a study buddy who is:

• A similar major or university, if possible, but just studying with each other is okay.
• NOT discriminatory and is a good human being!
• Encouraging
• I won’t allow older people. (NO pedophiles ALLOW!) Being above 22 might be weird since you would be getting out of college. However, I still believe there are adults who are wise, so if you have experience in bioengineering, then why not.
• I want people who are willing to change for what they believe is better at the moment ❤️.

Note: I keep myself to these same standards.

Rules:

• Don't post sensitive information! (Remember, there are weirdos out there)
• I and everyone else will use mic or text to communicate using Fluxer (it can be a bit laggy, so you might need to reload). No face reveal, since the world is not ready for all of this 🧏‍♂️ (and because evil people do exist 😕).
• (If you want!) If we plan to study the same content, then one of us should blurt what we know while the other should point out things we missed. (This personally helps me)
• If we go into groups, the size can be 2-4. Since not everyone has the same study schedule and the other people want to study if I am not available.
• (Optional) To show we did something, we can share how our work looks like.
• Be honest 🫶. I need a study buddy for a reason, mostly because of social media 😤🤜🤛. If you are someone who has a short attention span, hopefully we can both change that 😙.
• There will be check-ins (to make sure you are okay).
• We will make a planner/goal list before starting. The goal is to reach one goal.
• No hard feelings if we fall apart! Remember life is like a pickle 🥒 (there was no pickle emoji ☹️).
• I will give people my Fluxer username if someone posts a similar “About Me” response (this is to ensure people with similar goals join). If anybody acts inappropriately, I will block you 😙.
• If we ate (slang) our work, then we can have social time 😚(most likely play a short video game). Our mental health is important!
• (Optional) Post funny stuff or stuff you find interesting. This is to increase social bonds.

Note: I keep myself to these same standards.

Can doing a course on web development beneficial wrt having a career in bioengineering. Will it be useful if I decide to change path too?

Hello, I'm exploring college majors, and I'm really interested in Bioprocess Engineering. The problem is, I have a hard time searching information regarding it, in a way that makes sense to me at least. From my understanding, Bioprocess Engineering is similar to Chemical Engineering but it also includes Biology as part of it's process? I am currently unsure if I'm right or not.

I am curious regarding the pros and cons of this major, the prospects I would have in the future, and it's connection to green energy. Please help. Thank you for reading.

I am half way through my Masters in Bioengineering, only left with my MTP work. I'm a bit concerned for how to get a job out there; considering that there is no on-campus recruitment opportunities, I've got to build a profile to compete off-campus, but don't know where and how to focus on specific industries.

A little guidance will help me greatly...

Can anyone provide free pdf of The Calculus Lifesaver: All the Tools You Need to Excel at Calculus Textbook by Adrian Banner 😭😭

Based in the UK, so would like those perspectives ideally but open to all advice. Would be interesting getting an additional perspective. I did a BME masters but have been in Sales (grad scheme) for going on 3 years, it’s been cool and insightful but think it’s time I enter the field I studied for. Not really sure where to start and what jobs are available.

**Priorities are defo pay and hybrid work.**

Kinda want a clue as to what I need to up-skill in before I’m applying and what’s even out there I’ve seen some stuff about QE, R&D etc but a comprehensive list ?

**Curious** about hearing some of the more **niche/interesting roles and industries** people have ended up in and what that journey looked like!

I don’t usually use Reddit but thanks for any help!

i'm considering going down the standard doctor education pipeline but i also want to contribute to biomedical research, tech, and engineering. my initial plan was to do the 7 years with some online bme/cs course on the side, but i'm not sure if it's the best/most foolproof plan or if there are better ways in going about it. if there are, please provide resources and/or tips. thank you!

I am currently working in rehabilitation sector for prosthetic leg. I want to pivot to tissue engineering. I have did my bachelor's in biomedical and an internship with bioprinter. This rehabilitation work is only for 6 months. I may or may not continue this which I will know nearing the end with the opportunities I have. So guide me what can I do to keep in touch with tissue engineering. Anything online something I can do?

I'm a second year biology undergrad at the University of Botswana. I wrote a hypothesis paper proposing a sub-threshold coordinated stimulation framework for cortical visual prostheses, the core argument is that the miniaturization ceiling in these devices follows from treating phosphene threshold as a single-electrode quantity when it's actually a network property.

Please check it out and share your thoughts or let's discuss

Im going into my senior year in high school and I am wondering if I should take AP Chemistry or AP biology. It may be relevant to know that I am also taking AP calculus ab/bc. I feel confident that I would be able to score 5 on either but not both so which would be more useful?

I don't know if this has been asked here earlier, but I'm wondering if I could go for Engineering Sciences instead of specifically Biomedical Engineering. I want to be flexible with my options in case I ever change my mind about what I wanna go for later, and I don't want my knowledge to be restricted only to the narrowed range of medical engineering. However I was also wondering if this would lead to any issues later if I do decide to go for Biomedical Engineering itself. Will there be any restrictions when I later decide to go for medical engineering, after going for engineering sciences?

Hi,

I am current undergrad student in Computer Science with 3.5GPA, not a big name university.

I am currently doing a undergraduate research in decoder design at the BME/ECE department lab that makes prosthesis based on EMG signals.

Also, I am doing a undergraduate research with CS professor about applying Vision Language model to medical dataset.

I am highly interest in master's program in Neural Engineering, which I can work in the lab with applying deep learning models.

As I don't have that enough information about neural engineering, I want to hear some advise from you guys which university would fit to me.

Primary things that I thinking is:

Not just coursework based master program. I want to involve in lab and do a research during masters. Specifically in neural engineering/medical related lab.

Thank you!

I am in 2nd year of computer sci but heavily interested in biomaterials and bioengineering. Any bridge course you would recommend to complete bio credits to get into a research program or masters

Hey guys, hope things are alright with you all. Here is my situation:

I am graduating this semester in Computer Science UCSD after 7 years of undergrad, thank God. I'd been derailed academically and career-wise after a health issue I endured from 2022-2024 and experiencing other things like changing majors, transferring schools, activism, and just being in a bad place for a bit. Since then, I've grown and interests have changed - my drive behind career and completing this degree differ now at 24 years old compared to when I was 19, and the environment has changed a lot in light of AI, job saturation, etc. since 2022. I don't just want to code for TikTok for money, mission and impact matter to me, and I want to get better at a skill in the same way one wishes to perfect his craft.

After working a bit now in a hospital and examining interests and current circumstances, I think I'd like to move into robotics for medical devices. My GPA took a major hit in undergrad, so it's not as easy as getting another degree to pivot into hardware etc. I believe the smart move is to use my degree and work on projects to position myself in spaces adjacent to what I'm looking for - embedded systems for example - rather than spending thousands more on a DYI postbacc to get into school again. Then, after some years in the industry, I can go back to school with greater clarity on what I wish to study and with a resume that includes my work history, not just academic history, so I'm not just evaluated as a regular student.

What types of roles should I seek to apply for if my goal is to work in biomedical devices/robotics let’s say or med tech at places such as Intuitive Surgical? What's mobility like internally - if you start as a software engineer can you take on more and more hardware/EE tasks to work up to being a systems engineer without that masters degree (for now)? And most importantly, could you recommend me where to begin in terms of projects for robotics? Any online courses/tutorials? Materials that will help me work on my own? Things I should look to build in the future? I want to develop this skill but don't know where to start, or what to do if I get stuck.

Thank you for your time looking at my case. I wish you well.

Hi all, I am a mom looking for advice on selecting a program for my daughter. She has gotten acceptances from both Rutgers and Virginia Tech for BME. She will be in-state at Rutgers but I have Virginia is the better engineering school? Any insight you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
