6. POST GRADUATE ENGINEERING PROGRAMMES
MS Bioengineering
Awarded by: SCTIMST. Trivandrum.
The academic programme in Bioengineering leads 
to the degree of Master of Science in Bioengineering, 
under the Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical 
Sciences and Technology, Thiruvananthapuram 
(SCTIMST-TVM is an Institute of National 
Importance, Govt. of India). The department of 
Bioengineering works closely with several other 
departments in CMC. The current work ranges across 
physiological measurements, biomedical signal 
processing, neurorehabilitation engineering, and 
quantitative movement analysis. Lectures and 
laboratory-based courses on Transducers and 
Instrumentation, Imaging Systems, Physiological 
Systems, Signal Processing, etc. form part of the basic 
training.
The MS Bioengineering is a specialized engineering 
programme with an emphasis on research. The 
candidates undertake a year-long research project. 
Students interact closely with at least one of the 
clinical or basic science departments to formulate a 
research question. This degree equips students to 
apply quantitative and engineering methods to solve 
healthcare problems. Career prospects include 
research and development in the medical devices 
industry, as well as academic research and teaching 
careers.
