Pages 130-132 | Published online: 09 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

Medical electronic equipment has been produced in Hungary since the early forties. Industrial production of bioengineering started only in 1957. At the same time the bioengineering section of the Scientific Society of Measurement and Automation was founded. This Section was instrumental in recognizing the necessity for and establishing a structured education programme in bioengineering which started in the Postgraduate Institute for Engineers within Budapest Technical University. Later this was incorporated in the programme of the Technical University as an optional subject. Today there is also a specialised engineering course at the Technical University. There are significant developments in the bioengineering education of physicians and medical students. This paper deals with the possibility of classification bioengineering devices which has proved useful in education in Hungary.
