Biomedical Engineering as an undergraduate degree in Latin America is not new. However, most programs have the objective to produce professionals dedicated to the management and maintenance of health care technology. We believe that there is an important area of opportunity in the education of engineers who are competent in the design and development of medical devices. Among the 100 programs in the region there could be a few which could stand out as providers of such professionals. This work proposes a curricular structure to fulfill these aims.
生物医学工程作为拉丁美洲的本科学位并非新鲜事物。然而，大多数课程的目标是培养致力于医疗保健技术管理和维护的专业人员。我们认为，在培养能够胜任医疗设备设计和开发的工程师方面，存在一个重要的机会领域。在该地区的100个课程中，可能有少数几个能够脱颖而出，成为这类专业人员的提供者。这项工作提出了一种课程结构来实现这些目标。
