Department Laboratory
The Biomedical Engineering (BME) Laboratory provides hands-on experience in the application of engineering principles to the analysis and design of biological systems and medical technologies. The lab is designed to bridge theoretical knowledge with practical skills, offering students and researchers exposure to cutting-edge tools and techniques used in modern healthcare and biomedical research.
Anatomy and Human Physiology Laboratory
The Anatomy and Human Physiology Lab gives students a chance to learn about the human body through hands-on activities. Using models, dissections, and experiments, students explore different body systems like the heart, lungs, nerves, and muscles. They also learn how to collect blood, identify blood groups, and test things like bleeding time, hemoglobin levels, and blood cell counts. By connecting what they learn in class with real-life tasks, students improve their problem-solving skills.
Sensors and Measurements Laboratory
The Sensors and Measurements Lab introduces students to the fundamental principles of how sensors are used to measure physical and physiological parameters in healthcare and engineering applications. Through a series of hands-on experiments, students learn how to analyze the behavior of different types of sensors, understand their characteristics, and work with signal conditioning and measurement circuits. The lab focuses on accurate data acquisition, calibration techniques, and the selection of suitable sensors for specific applications. By the end of the course, students gain practical skills in designing and testing sensor-based systems, interpreting sensor outputs, and applying their knowledge to solve real-world problems in monitoring, diagnostics, and instrumentation.
Biomedical Instrumentation Laboratory
In the Biomedical Instrumentation Lab, students engage with practical aspects of biomedical devices that interface with the human body. Experiments include ECG, EMG, EEG signal acquisition, amplifier design, and noise filtering. Students design and troubleshoot circuits to measure and display biopotentials safely and effectively. This lab bridges the gap between human physiology and electronic systems, allowing students to understand how instrumentation supports patient monitoring. Learning outcomes focus on circuit design, signal acquisition, and interpreting bio-signals for clinical application. Students gain valuable insights into the design and functioning of medical equipment, equipping them with skills necessary for careers in medical device development and hospital equipment maintenance.

Equipment such as pacemakers, defibrillators, ventilators, dialysis machines, and diathermy units are studied in-depth. Students analyze the operational principles and safety standards of these devices. The lab promotes the understanding of how therapeutic equipment interacts with human systems and improves patient outcomes. Learning outcomes include the ability to evaluate device functions, safety mechanisms, and clinical implications. This hands-on experience is vital for students aspiring to work in hospitals or the medical device industry, ensuring they can manage, troubleshoot, and support therapeutic interventions effectively
Biosignal Processing Laboratory
The Biosignal Processing Lab helps students learn how to analyze and understand signals from the human body, such as ECG, EMG, and EEG.
