This is it, my final post of the year. Exams have delayed this by at least a few weeks but, finally, we’re here at the end of our journey through biomedical engineering. I hope you’ve enjoyed it and learnt a thing or two. Let me now leave you with some final thoughts and wholesome take-home…Continue Reading Are you the world’s next biomedical engineer?
It’s been 8 weeks since the start of Semester Two and what a tumultuous 8 weeks they’ve been. On the first Monday back after mid-semester break, we had what I considered to be the hardest multi-choice question test I’ve ever taken. In high school, I thought ‘hardest’ and ‘multi-choice’ were words that would never go…Continue Reading Part II BME Part II
And I’m back! Hope you’re all having a wonderful mid-semester break (or, for some of us, a wonderful MEDSCI 142 cramming session)! We left off last time by covering 2 out of the 4 courses that all young biomedical engineers have to take (more if you’re doing a science conjoint, but hey, this isn’t a…Continue Reading The journey through first semester continues…
It all seemed so sudden. One day I’m buying my coursebooks to start a fresh, new year as a biomedical engineering (BME) student and the next day I’m taking the bus home after my last exam of first semester. That’s 4 entire months. Gone like the cash in my account when course fees attack. Not…Continue Reading Where did all that time go? – A journey through the first semester of Biomedical Engineering
Hello! My name is Nicholas and I’m originally from India, but I’ve been stuck in the New Zealand education system for 13 years, so I decided to give it my all for the last 5 and do an Engineering/Science conjoint, specialising in Biomedical Engineering (BME) and majoring in Physics. There are 3 things that have…Continue Reading Giving It My All
As I have clearly shown from my previous posts, I absolutely love BME and I don’t think there is any other degree that I would rather be studying for, but it isn’t for everyone and there are definitely some things to consider before choosing BME. So today, I’m going to outline some of the…Continue Reading 10 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Do BME
If I had written my first post within my first few weeks of being in BME, it probably would have sounded a little more optimistic, but instead, I’m writing this while taking a break from the five assignments (that is no joke) I’m currently working on that are all due at the start of next…Continue Reading Already in the Deep End
