How do they match: Bioengineers and Biomedical Engineers

  • Apply knowledge of engineering, biology, chemistry, computer science, and biomechanical principles to the design, development, and evaluation of biological, agricultural, and health systems and products, such as artificial organs, prostheses, instrumentation, medical information systems, and health management and care delivery systems.

  • Collaborate with manufacturing or quality assurance staff to prepare product specification or safety sheets, standard operating procedures, user manuals, or qualification and validation reports.
  • Confer with research and biomanufacturing personnel to ensure the compatibility of design and production.
  • Design or direct bench or pilot production experiments to determine the scale of production methods that optimize product yield and minimize production costs.
  • Develop bioremediation processes to reduce pollution, protect the environment, or treat waste products.
  • Develop methodologies for transferring procedures or biological processes from laboratories to commercial-scale manufacturing production.
  • Research new materials to be used for products, such as implanted artificial organs.

  • Advise customers on the use of products or services.
  • Analyze operational data to evaluate operations, processes or products.
  • Estimate time requirements for development or production projects.
