Research Methods in Bioengineering

[0.50] credits · Graduate

Research methodologies used in bioengineering are reviewed and assessed in the context of a diverse range of applications: biomechanics, control and instrumentation, ergonomics, diagnostic tools, biomaterials and food safety. The scientific method is discussed in terms of defining research problems, appropriate tests and hypotheses, experimental methods, data analysis and drawing conclusions. The objective is to guide students as they develop a coherent research proposal and deepen their understanding of the breadth of the discipline.
