This paper reviews Canadian biomedical engineering programs, noting no specific undergraduate degrees exist. The clinical engineering program at the University of British Columbia has been discontinued.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering Education
  • Biomedical Engineering Technology
  • Canadian Higher Education

Background:

  • This paper provides an update to the 1988 publication on Bioengineering Education in Canada.
  • It details current biomedical engineering and technology programs across Canadian universities.
  • The study focuses on program availability, not evaluation.

Framework:

  • The paper surveys undergraduate and technology programs in biomedical engineering.
  • It identifies universities offering biomedical engineering options within broader undergraduate degrees.
  • The discontinuation of a specific clinical engineering program is noted.

Implementation:

  • Data was collected on existing biomedical engineering and technology programs in Canada.

  • The study identifies three universities with biomedical engineering options in undergraduate programs.
  • The closure of the University of British Columbia's clinical engineering program is documented.
  • Implications:

    • The landscape of biomedical engineering education in Canada has evolved since 1988.
    • There's a lack of dedicated undergraduate biomedical engineering degrees, with options integrated into other programs.
    • The findings inform prospective students and educational institutions about current program offerings and trends in Canadian biomedical engineering.
