DESCRIPTION

The mission of this programme consists in ensuring a high level of bachelor’s training in the field of designing and constructing medical products and systems, their appliance in healthcare, scientific and private clinics. The aim of this programme in professional training is to help graduates meet their needs for gaining universal, general professional, and professional competencies, which allow the graduate to successfully work in their professional field of activity, and to be a competent specialist, and which contribute to their social mobility and stability on the labour market.

AIMS

design and construction activity:
•    identifying operation conditions and modes and designing features of biotechnical systems and medical products;
•    developing technical requirements and specifications for designing and constructing biotechnological systems and medical products, as well as their components;
•    designing and constructing biotechnical systems and medical products, as well as their nodes and details;
•    implementing information searching activities to improve professional skills in linguistics and intercultural communication.

production and technology activity:
•    developing technological processes and technical documentation for producing, assembling, setting and controlling biotechnical systems and medical products, as well as their elements and nodes;
•    introducing metrological support and quality control of medical products and biotechnical systems, as well as their components;
•    building and integrating biotechnical systems and technologies;
•    ensuring technical maintenance of biotechnical systems and medical products;
•    organising and implementing after-sales maintenance and service for biotechnical systems and medical products.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

On successful completion of the course the student should be able to:
