Biomedical Engineering trainers and faculty members are supposed to follow some important strategies.

1. BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE COURSE

Although Biomedical is an amalgam of so many domains from different programs, it’s important that a teacher has varied knowledge for the same. It need not be a definitive form of knowledge but at least an idea surrounding the basic understanding of the domains. Students raise concerns pertaining to different fields in the course and so it becomes necessary to give them an insight into the areas.

2. RESEARCH AND INNOVATIONS

The most important aspect is the thirst for projects and innovations. Projects may not be targeted to a large scale module rather it can start from small scale products to then progress to bigger modules. The motivation for students to work on practical applications to help them understand the theories taught in class with ease. Encouraging students to apply for conferences, seminars, and attending workshops to foresee the development of Biomedical Engineering through this platform. Mainly focusing on healthcare-oriented projects and ideas to students so that they move closer to innovations.

3. SUBJECT KNOWLEDGE

Subject expertise is an important factor in the development of young minds. Not only knowledge through textbooks, but also through digital platforms play a vital role in the making of an efficient teacher. It’s important that a teacher loves the subject they are teaching. Bringing innovative mediums to teach can also play a vital role in helping students grasp knowledge and understanding. Teachers usually teach specific portions of subjects moving closer to the given syllabus in the institution, so it’s important to then draw a bigger picture and discuss concepts outside the syllabus. It’s also necessary to take reference from decent standard biomedical books than settle for textbooks that helps only in scoring grades with limited access to information.

4. CURRENT TRENDS IN BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

Teachers are the first link of students to the outside Biomedical world. They are the ones who will be the point of contact in terms of any doubts or discussions related to the biomedical field. As technology is progressing rapidly, the need for updation on current trends to inspire students to reach for innovative products becomes a necessity. As teachers, it’s a multitasking responsibility to be aware of the existing and future models of technology that can ensure that the students’ progress in the right path.

5. JOBS AND PLACEMENTS

This is one important area where teachers will be referred to or taken advice from. They have to be well equipped with the current work scenario so as to guide students in career goals. Being a field with multiple domain programs, it’s likely that students can get confused with choosing their profession. Throughout the job hunt, finally, it will be a teacher’s advice that can help them attain an idea of the placements that can help them train themselves better. There usually are a lot of queries raised in terms of jobs and opportunities and hence guiding them in these times is a humungous task.
