Location of Czech Technical University

The master study program Biomedical engineering and informatics covers the extensive field of modern biomedical technologies, including both software and hardware solutions. Here, we meet signal theory, methods of system modelling, processing of visual information or of complex biomedical data, design and implementation of software and device systems for health care and related disciplines, complex view on the chain starting by measurements (examination methods), followed by data processing up to their evaluation, interpretation and storage into medical records, engineering design of medical devices, measurement, transition and processing electric and non-electric quantities (sensors and device technology). Profound theoretical background of this master program with strongly interdisciplinary structure offers to its graduates significant competitive advantage and universality on the job market due to synergy of all included parts.

The master study program BMII is focused towards higher forms of study in the domain of instrumental techniques, electronics, signal and image processing, informatics as they are applied in health care and biomedicine. From the beginning of master studies the students can decide between two branches (specializations) – Biomedical engineering and Biomedical informatics. This means that during the first study year each student first gains deep theoretical background in four common relatively extensive subjects and later he/she gets the chance to specialize according to the selected branch. The study is stratified and it offers rich space for independent and individual work of students during their work on their projects and diploma thesis. Further specialization can be gained through number of offered selective subjects.


Contents

Specialization:

- Biomedical engineering

The masters study program branch Biomedical engineering aims to educate electro-technical engineers with knowledge and abilities to solve engineering problems namely in the domain of design and construction of medical device for diagnostics and therapy, design and development of medical information and decision support systems.

- Biomedical informatics

The masters study program branch Biomedical informatics aids to educate computer professionals understanding basic principals of functioning of living organisms (from molecular and cellular level up to human physiology) as well as current tasks, procedures and problems of medical care. The mandatory subjects provide the students with deep insight into the most important application domains of informatics in medicine and with reliable theoretical knowledge in informatics – this background makes it possible for the students to take active part in one of the promising fields of research and development e.g. in the form of diploma thesis: Bioinformatics, Neuroinformatics, Assistive technologies and e-health systems or Medical informatics and clinical information systems.

Requirements

One of the main conditions required for admission to a master study program following on from the bachelor level study program is a completed
bachelor or master level study program documented by the respective diploma. The entrance admission procedure differs according to the study
program
CREDIT SYSTEM
In order to quantify the study load of individual courses, a unified credit system is applied. Credits obtained within a study program are added
up; the cumulative number of credits serves as a tool for study assessment. The credit system is compatible with the European Credit Transfer
System (ECTS).
The minimum number of credit units necessary for continuation of studies is as follows:
* for the first semester of study: Master program - 20
* for the first academic year of study (2 semesters): Master program - 40
* for any other academic year of study (2 semesters): both Bachelor and Master programs: 40

The standard period of studies in master programs is 4 semesters (2 years).

Additional Requirements

Minimal degree required: Bachelor's degree
Minimal amount of work experience Not specified
