Biomedical engineering is a rapidly growing field that combines principles from engineering and the life sciences to address medical and biological problems. However, there is a significant gap between health and engineering in biomedical engineering education, which can lead to a lack of understanding and collaboration between health and engineering professionals, limiting the development and implementation of practical solutions. To address this gap, there is a need for more integration of health and engineering in biomedical engineering programs concerning local context. By integrating these disciplines more closely with local environments, regulations, challenges, and barriers, biomedical engineering students can better understand the intersection between medicine and engineering in their current environment and how engineers can use their skill set to improve health care and medical technology.
