This interdisciplinary program involves the application of Engineering Sciences to the solution of specific problems in Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, and related fields. The dominant areas of research interest among our faculty include: biomechanics, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasonography, biomedical signal and image processing, applications of artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic and expert systems, physiological system modeling, and medical instrumentation. While at the University of Saskatchewan, you will have access to state of the art facilities, labs, and research centres such as the Biomedical Beam Line of the Canadian Light Source, Canada's only synchrotron. The Division of Biomedical Engineering offers postgraduate programs leading to the P.G.D. and the M.Eng., M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees. Research in the Division is of an interdisciplinary nature involving the application of Engineering Sciences to the solution of specific problems in Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, and related fields. The following are focal areas for the activity: biomedical image processing, biomechanics, medical instrumentation, and use of the Biomedical Beam Line of the Canadian Light Source.
