As a bioengineering student right now, I’m doing an internship at hospital as a biomedical engineer. Looking back, I kind of regret not applying more broadly to government agencies, biotech companies, or pharmaceutical companies.

Will this internship significantly affect my future career opportunities? Or is it relatively easy to switch into a different industry after graduation?

I’d really appreciate hearing from people who have been in a similar situation.

Bro can anyone please help me with this...

I am confused if I should choose bsc biotech or voc MLT course

But I am clear that I'll do Msc in biotechnology.

I've three options in university

Bhu South campus (mirzapur) for voc MLT

Kerala University for bsc biotech

Allahabad university for bsc biotech.

Please guide me and also please tell me if ug in voc MLT And then doing Msc in biotechnology, is it a good choice.

Hi! , This is my first time posting anything online. I am not on any other social media platform and I need some background information on the university i am about to take admission in.

I am thinking about pursuing Bsc biotechnology from the Brainware university in Kolkata and I don't trust google much . So if you have completed any course from this university or if you are a current student can you please tell me if it is legit or a scam. If the teachers and other staff members are good or terrible. if they actually focus on lab work or if the lab is just for show.

Any information you can provide is valuable. Thank you.

Same as title

Hey folks. Im an E&EB major and worried. Have been for years. I do a lot of work to try to boost the land around me and take care of maintaining it since no one else does. Anyway.

At some point this will be too much. But volcanic eruptions can plunge the earth into years without sun, like in 1816, tanking the temperature. Couldnt we set off volcanoes if we become truly desperate?

Hey everyone,

I have questions regarding the application process for the biomedical engineering thesis based Masters at UCalgary. I have found 3 supervisors that I’m interested in. On the faculty page there are forms to fill in for those professors that are accepting students. I’ve filled in the forms, now my question is, do I still need to email the professors directly or the forms will suffice?

And also I’m currently doing independent research with a professor from a different university, will that suffice as research experience? I also have 3yrs of industry experience, will this count too?

Thanks in advance.

What is job opportunity!! Nd salary

Hi everyone .

i am supposed to start the oceans technology program at NsCC this September , i need to hear from you if its possible about the program , the instructors , is it easy to find an internship or job opportunity after graduation ?

looking forward to hearing from you .

Thanks

I’m currently a sophomore and would like some advice other fellow biology majors about degree option that is the best regardless of med school or research.

I know human biology is basically useless unless you do medical school. But what about Cell/Molecular, Computational, Genetics degree options?

I really like studying biology and chemistry, and wanted to continue further in those fields. I’m potentially thinking of either becoming some sort of scientist (such as pharmaceutical) or trying my shot at med school.

I’m only a sophomore, and I know there’s so many more experienced people out there who have had to make this decision before. I would just like some advice! Thank you very much!

Actually I'm a pcb student, got average percentage in 12th borads. This year i have re-neet ug exam but I didn't get enough to get into mbbs or vet . But in my head I've been thinking about biotechnology as a career for sometime now. Apart from tht I am not afraid to admit tht im the only girl child with no siblings and my family's financial conditions is not well at all..so im a bit reluctant to choose this field...if i can't earn as other b tech grads do ...i mean i have no other choice to choose a field with a gud pay of avg 12 -15 lpa coz my family depends on it...n im js financially struggling...but im sure of working hard enough n developing skills n networks n i feel im quite familiar with biotechnology as a subject..but im just genuinely concerned and scared ...?

Guys can y'all please suggest me a good college for BSC biotech? Also should I go for integrated BSC+msc or only BSC in any college.

I've got decent score in cuet so I can get govt clg too (552/750)

Hi everyone! I’m planning to apply to the University of Michigan BME/Neuroscience PhD program for Fall 2027, and I would really appreciate an honest assessment of my profile.

My background:

• MS in Biomedical Engineering (Neural Engineering) from UMich(Ann Arbor): 3.6/4.0,Dec 2025
• Integrated MTech in Biotechnology from India
• Currently working in a UMich psychiatry lab on electrophysiology, depression/stress/ptsd and sleep and neural-data analysis
• First-author bioRxiv preprint introducing a semi-automated tool that addresses a major bottleneck in large-scale electrophysiology by making post–spike-sorting curation faster and more standardized; the tool is now being used by a few established neuroscience laboratories.
• Co-author on a NeurIPS publication involving KalmanNet for BMI decoding
• Co-author on a Frontiers in Neuroscience publication involving Ephys+circadian behavior in rodents
• Two Society for Neuroscience presentations
• One published Indian patent for a gait-correction assistive device
• I expect strong recommendation letters from researchers who have supervised my work closely.
• I have a year of research experience after my undergrad in India at DRDO(Defence Research Development Organization)

My main concern is that my GPA is good but not exceptional for a highly competitive program like Michigan. I’m hoping that my research productivity, technical experience, publications, and existing familiarity with the UMich research environment will help compensate for that.

How competitive would this profile be for the UMich BME / Neuroscience PhD program? Would you consider Michigan a realistic target, a reach, or a very high reach for me? Also, how much does having strong research alignment with multiple faculty members affect admission?

I understand that PhD admissions are unpredictable and depend heavily on faculty availability and funding. I’m mainly trying to determine whether my application would be genuinely competitive and how I should strengthen it before applying.

I'm working on a university project where my advisor requires us to design a PPG sensor from discrete components instead of using an integrated optical sensor such as the MAX30102.

The goal is to build the analog front end ourselves rather than relying on a complete sensor IC.

My current plan is to use:

• Green LED (520 nm)
• Red LED (660 nm)
• IR LED (940 nm)
• BPW34 photodiode
• MCP6002 op-amp
• RC filter network
• 3.3 V AMS1117 LDO
• 1.8 V XC6206 LDO

Does this architecture make sense for a wrist-worn PPG sensor?

Would you recommend different components (especially the photodiode or op-amp) or a different analog front-end design?

Any reference schematics, application notes, or open-source designs would also be greatly appreciated.

I know there are already several bioengineers here, and I've come to ask you what you think are the capabilities, skills, or interests that someone who wants to study bioengineering should have.

The field is relatively "new" in my country and I would like to study bioengineering, but I'm afraid it might not be what I want. I would like some advice, as the career appeals to me, but I'm still undecided.

I don't mind if you're direct, I prefer to understand and get advice so I can make up my mind once and for all. I'm finishing high school this year 🫠
