This paper describes the concept and application of the organizational culture of a BME teaching institute, based on the specificity of biomedical engineering. Selected values and behavioral patterns typical for this profession were endorsed to reinforce the mutual cooperation and understanding of students, university staff and employers as partners in the educational process. Besides of building a professional pride and reputation of the teaching institute, the corporate culture is proved to be useful in imposing of the attitudes required in future career of the biomedical engineer as a partner of a medic in his efforts aimed at the wellness and safety of the patient. Five years since the foundation of the Multidisciplinary School of engineering In Biomedicine we still do not have a quantitative measure of the educational outcome quality, nevertheless the presented idea may be very useful and worth sharing with all BME educators.
本文基于生物医学工程的特殊性，描述了一所生物医学工程教学机构的组织文化概念及应用。认可了该专业典型的特定价值观和行为模式，以加强学生、大学教职员工和雇主作为教育过程合作伙伴之间的相互合作与理解。除了树立教学机构的职业自豪感和声誉外，企业文化还被证明有助于培养生物医学工程师未来职业生涯所需的态度，使其作为医生的合作伙伴，致力于患者的健康和安全。自生物医学多学科工程学院成立五年以来，我们仍未对教育成果质量进行量化评估，尽管如此，所提出的理念可能非常有用，值得与所有生物医学工程教育工作者分享。
