美国名校约翰霍普金斯大学生物医学工程解析

约翰霍普金斯大学（johns hopkins university，缩写jhu，别名“菊花大学”）成立于1876年1月22日，系根据美国著名慈善家约翰·霍普金斯的遗嘱使用其遗产建立。约翰霍普金斯大学是一所中等大小的非营利私立研究型大学，主校区位于美国马里兰州巴尔的摩市，在华盛顿特区、中国南京、新加坡、意大利博洛尼亚都有分校区。约翰霍普金斯大学是美国第一所现代研究型大学，它的成功引发了美国大学向研究型大学转型的风潮，一批新的研究型大学也随之纷纷建立。学校以医学、公共卫生、空间科学、国际关系、文学及音乐等学科而闻名世界，也是哈勃空间望远镜和詹姆斯·韦伯空间望远镜的地面控制中心所在地。美国国家科学基金会连续31年将该校列为全美科研经费开支最高的大学。截止至2012年，约翰霍普金斯大学共有36名校友获诺贝尔奖。

生物医学工程 ﹙biomeical engineering, bme﹚ 是综合生物学、医学和工程学的理论和方法而发展起来的新兴边缘学科，其主要研究方向是运用工程技术手段，研究和解决生物学和医学中的有关问题。多学科的交叉，使它不同于那些经典的学科，也有别于生物医学和纯粹的工程学科。现在的生物医学工程在疾病的预防、诊断、治疗、康复等方面起着巨大作用，世界各个主要国家均将它列入高技术领域，重点投资优先发展。

项目介绍
the master’s egree program prepares stuents to pursue a variety of careers in research, inustry, consulting, government, an more. many of our stuents also continue their eucation through ph or m/ph programs. stuents are provie theoretical instruction in the traitional engineering isciplines, given exposure to specialize biomeical engineering topics, an have the opportunity ﹙through the “thesis track” egree option﹚ to participate in supervise research projects. in aition to the thesis track, which typically takes two years to complete ﹙one year of coursework plus one year of research﹚, stuents have the option to complete the mse egree in one year through coursework specializing in one of seven focus areas.
biomeical ata science分支方向的详细介绍和课程设置
the past ecae has seen major avances in our ability to acquire ata on human health across multiple spatio-temporal scales. this wealth of ata poses challenges that have never before been confronte. at the heart of these is unerstaning how massive biomeical ata sets are best analyze to iscover new knowlege about the function of living systems in health an isease, an how this knowlege can be harnesse to provie improve, more afforable health care. because of their eep an broa cross-training in biology, meicine, an engineering, johns hopkins biomeical engineers are ieally positione to take on this challenge.
the biomeical ata science focus area provies an eucational curriculum that trains stuents in how to solve such problems. this training is one in close collaboration with faculty of the epartments of anesthesiology & critical care meicine, neurology, neurosurgery, an psychiatry. we are creating a common research an teaching space where stuents an faculty of these epartments work together with biomeical engineers to evelop novel clou-base technologies an ata analysis methos that are neee to improve our ability to iagnose an treat isease more effectively while reucing costs.
