Advanced Technologies in Medicine

We are dedicated to finding new technical solutions for medical devices and filling the gap between the medical and engineering communities.

History

The School of Advanced Technologies in Medicine (ATiM) was established in 1999, as a department of Physics and Biomedical Engineering within the School of Medicine. The department is then promoted to its current stature as “School of Advanced Technologies in Medicine” in 2012.

Vision

Through its departments, ATiM creates engineering knowledge and novel biomedical technology that improve the human condition through the advancement of clinical care and biomedical science.

Mission

As an interdisciplinary school, ATiM plays an essential role to bridge engineering, science and medicine. We highly aim to educate and train the next diverse generation of interdisciplinary biomedical sciences. Our efforts focus on creating enabling technologies for the improvement of human health and health care. Moreover, to participate with scientific institutes, we engage with local to the global community of medical researchers to identify important problems that impact human health and solve them by using our technical expertise.

Department and Majors

The School of ATiM encompasses four departments of Bioelectrical Engineering, Biomaterial Engineering, Bioinformatics and Medical Imaging Technology offering education at MSc and PhD levels.
