Institute of Biomedical Engineering & Technology

Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences aims to achieve prominence as a top-tier World-class Medical research and teaching university, producing top notch healthcare providers operating excellence in every segment of the community.(https://www.LUMHS.edu.pk/about)

The mission of Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences is to foster excellence in health professional education and research, to educate and train undergraduate and graduate students of medical and health as well as engineering sciences in accordance with highest professional standards and ethical values and to meet the healthcare needs of the community through dissemination of knowledge and service.

The mission of the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and Technology (IBET) is to provide the fundamental knowledge, skills and professional experience education that prepares students to lead, innovate, and self-educate throughout their careers in bio-engineering and biomedical professions and industries.

To contribute to society through the pursuit of education and to bridge the gap of skill and learning and research between advance countries and Pakistan.

The Institute of Biomedical Engineering and technology’s vision is to contribute as a worldwide leading institution committed to developing and using the advanced technology and engineering knowledge for the improvement of healthcare.

The three program educational objectives (PEOS), as gives below, from the basis of the institute of biomedical engineering and technology at LUMHS. The PEOS were formulated in the consultation with the members of faculty and were adapted by the institute of biomedical engineering department during the faculty meeting on the implementation of outcome based education.
Within the period of the graduation, the students with bachelors in biomedical engineering are expected to attain the following objectives:
Ro develop skills to plan for, implement, manage and evaluate Biomedical Systems. And to introduce the theory of different technologies, biomedical engineering systems and the rationale for selecting appropriate engineers suited to the varying engineering contexts.
PEO: 1
Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals and create enabling technologies for the improvement of human health sciences.
PEO: 2
Enhance student’s intellectual and analytical abilities in taking initiative and analytical abilities in taking initiative and/or developing innovative ideas for technological and professional growth in the field of Biomedical Engineering.
PEO: 3
Work effectively as a team member or lead multidisciplinary teams while demonstrating the interpersonal and management skills, ethical, social and environmental responsibilities.

11. PROJECT MANAGEMENT
An ability to demonstrate management skills and apply engineering principles to one’s own work, as a member and / or leader in a team, to manage projects in a multidisciplinary environment.

12. LIFELONG LEARINING
An ability to recognize importance of, and pursue lifelong learning in the broader context of innovation and technological developments.

The overall process of assessment and evaluations of PEOS and continuous quality improvement (CQI) is shown in figure: the complete CQI process is based on the three concentric loops for assessment and evaluation. The PLOS (program learning outcomes) and CLOS (course learning outcomes) that ate described previously.
Various stakeholders are shown in the flow chart that are participate in the decision making process. The decision making process is explained in the following paragraphs.
LUMHS has a syndicate and an academic council. Institute has faculty board of studies (FBS) and institute board of studies (IBS) to handle various aspects of academic matters. The feedback is also provided by the institute faculty and students as well as by the alumni.
