The course outline is designed in a manner that students get a brief introduction to human anatomy and physiology, bioelectric phenomena;
so that they understand the circuit and instrumentation realization of biomedical devices. The topics include: 1) Introduction to bio-electromag-
netism and Bioelectric Phenomena 2) Membrane potentials of excitable tissue (Neural cells, pacemaker cells, cardiac muscle cells etc.) 3)
Introduction to cardiology and ECG (ECG analysis, Lead system, ECG amplifier, ECG noises etc.) 4) Introduction to musculoskeletal muscle
system and EMG (EMG amplifier, measurements etc.) 5) Introduction to neural system and EEG (EEG amplifier, lead systems, measure-
ments etc.) 6) Artificial pacemaker, types & operations etc. 7) Introduction to respiratory system and pulmonary diseases, measurements,
diagnosis etc. 8) Introduction to circulatory system and measurements etc. 9) Introduction to endocrine system and artificial pancreas. 10)
Introduction to medical imaging technology (Ultrasound, X-ray & CT-scan, MRI, PET, SPECT) 11) Introduction to patient safety and monitoring
(ICU, CCU) 12) Classification of medical devices, international regulations (CE and FDA approvals) Laboratory works based on taught theory.

EEE 3107:Engineering Ethics

EEE 3107:Engineering Ethics Technology has a pervasive and profound effect on the contemporary world, and engineers play a central role
in all aspects of technological development. To hold paramount, the safety, health, and welfare of the public, engineers must be morally
committed and equipped to grapple with ethical dilemmas they confront. This course will provide an introduction to the issues in engineering
ethics. It places those issues within a philosophical framework, and it seeks to exhibit their social importance and intellectual challenge. The
goal is to stimulate reasoning and to provide the conceptual tools necessary for responsible decision making. Case studies will be utilized
throughout as part of the Discussion Topics. Those cases will offer the opportunity for interactive classes.
