Moreover, they carry the vision, mission and objectives of the department and the university to contribute significantly to the development of the medical devices and healthcare sectors and also to play a prominent and distinctive role in the settlement and transfer of technologies and medical industries in line with the complete harmony of the medical and technical industries inhabitation initiative in vision 2030.
To keep up with the labor market and research developments' requirements in BME, the department established two master programs (Master of Science (MSc) and Master of Engineering (MEng) programs in BME) in 2021/2022. Also, the significant department’s contributions to scientific research and community service will advance and improve KSA's medical devices and healthcare sectors.
