Biomedical Engineering Education in Italy |
|
|
Biomedical engineering teaching activities in Italy started in the years 1968-69. The course of "Biomedical Electronics" was activated at the University of Padova and at the University of Naples and the courses of "Bio-energetic" and "Biological Electronics" started at the Polytechnic of Milan. Since then many other courses and educational programmes have started in many Italian University. Post-graduate courses started in the years 1971-72 when "Post-graduated courses of Biomedical instrumentation" was set-up at the University of Naples, while Bioengineering PhD courses were activated in 1982 as consortium of various Universities with two administrative headquarters in Milan and Bologna.
