Dr. Al-Momani questions health students' biomedical engineering readiness
The writer expresses his disapproval of attempting to admit a health sciences student into the Biomedical Engineering program based on the credit hour system, despite the student not meeting the fundamental requirements for the field, which include engineering courses as well as principles of physics and mathematics. He points out that the engineering study plan requires 160 credit hours, encompassing specialized engineering subjects, mathematical skills, and physical sciences. This makes admitting a health sciences student without those levels of knowledge illogical and a threat to the quality of education and graduates. He concludes that this approach contradicts the principles of engineering education and is essentially an attempt to patch up failure, relying on an unsuitable system for engineering disciplines.
