Preamble
To meet the challenge of ensuring excellence in engineering education, the issue of quality needs
to be addressed, debated and taken forward in a systematic manner. Accreditation is the principal
means of quality assurance in higher education. The major em phasis of accreditation process is to
measure the outcomes of the program that is being accredited. In line with this Faculty of Science
and Technology (in particular Engineering)of University of Mumbai has taken a lead in
incorporating philosophy of outco me based education in the process of curriculum development.
Faculty resolved that course objectives and course outcomes are to be clearly defined for each
course, so that all faculty members in a ffiliated institutes understand the depth and approach of
course to be taught, which will enhance learner’s learning process. Choice based Credit and
grading system enables a much -required shift in focus from teacher -centric to learner -centric
education si nce the workload estimated is based on the investment of tim e in learning and not in
teaching. It also focuses on continuous evaluation which will enhance the quality of education.
Credit assignment for courses is based on 15 weeks teaching learning proces s, however content
of courses is to be taught in 12 -13 weeks and remaining 2 -3 weeks to be utilized for revision,
guest lectures, coverage of content beyond syllabus etc.
There was a concern that the earlier revised curriculum more focused on providing inf ormation
and knowledge across various domains of the said pr ogram, which led to heavily loading of
students in terms of direct contact hours. In this regard, faculty of science and technology resolved
that to minimize the burden of contact hours, total cre dits of entire program will be of 170, wherein focus is
not only on providing knowledge but also on building skills, attitude and self learning. Therefore in the
present curriculum skill based laboratories and mini projects are made mandatory across all di sciplines of
engineering in second and third year of program s, which will definitely facilitate self learning of students.
The overall credits and approach of curriculum proposed in the present revision is in line with AICTE
model curriculum.
The present c urriculum will be implemented for Second Year of Engineering from the academic
year 2020 -21. Subsequently this will be carried forward for Third Year and Final Year
Engineering in the academic years 2021 -22, 2022 -23, respectively.

Incorporation and implementation of Online Contents from
NPTEL/ Swayam Platform

The curriculum revision is mainly focused on knowledge component, skill based activities and
project based activities. Self le arning opportunities are provided to learners. In the revision process
this time in particular Revised syllabus of ‘C ‘ scheme wherever possible additional resource links
of platforms such as NPTE L, Swayam are appropriately provided. In an earlier revision of
curriculum in the year 2012 and 2016 in Revised scheme ‘A' and ‘B' respectively, efforts were
made to use online contents more appropriately as additional learning materials to enhance
learnin g of students.
In the current revision based on the recomme ndation of AICTE model curriculum overall credits
are reduced to 171, to provide opportunity of self learning to learner. Learners are now getting
sufficient time for self learning either through online courses or additional projects for enhancing
their kn owledge and skill sets.
The Principals/ HoD’s/ Faculties of all the institute are required to motivate and encourage learners
to use additional online resources available on platforms such as NPTE L/ Swayam. Learners can
be advised to take up online courses , on successful completion they are required to submit
certification for the same. This will definitely help learners to facilitate their enhanced learning
based on their interest.

Preface By BoS
Engineering is an innovative field, the origin of ideas leading to everything from automobile to
aerospace, skys crapers to sonar. Biomedical Engineering focuses on the advances that improve
human health and health care at all levels . Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary field
with application of the principles of Basic Sciences, Mathematics, Engineering f undamentals and
Biology for problem -solving.
The curriculum is designed to meet the challenges by include new age courses on Machine
Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Data Analytics and other emerging technologies , dismantl ing the
walls between engineeri ng and scientific disciplines. The key t o generat e a new paradigm shift for
careers in Biomedical E ngineering for the next generation of talented minds lies in imparting high-
quality education in Engineering .
Every course in the curriculum lists the cours e objectives and course outcomes for the learners to
understand the skills that the learner will acquire after completing that course. Program outcomes
are the skills and knowledge that a student will acquire d uring the course of four years of this
enginee ring program. In line with this, Faculty of Technology of University of Mumbai has taken
a lead in incorporating the philosophy of outcome based education in the process of curriculum
development.
As the Chair man, Board of Studies in Biomedical Engineerin g of the University of Mumbai, I am
happy to state here that, the Program Educational Objectives for undergraduate program were
thoughtfully framed by faculty members from different affiliated institutes of the university. They
are Heads of Departments and senior representatives from the Department of Biomedical
Engineering.
The Program Educational Objectives for the undergraduate program in Biomedical engineering
are listed below;
1. To prepare the learner with a sound foundation in the Human Physiology, Mathematics,
Electronics, Computer Programming and engineering fundamentals .

2. To motivate the learner for self -learning, logical & analytical thinking and use of modern tools
for solving real life problems.

3. To impart technical knowledge, competency skills, professional and ethical attitude, good
leadership qualities to contribute in the field of healthcare.

4. To prepare the Learner for a successful career in healthcare industry such as sales & marketing,
research & development, hospital administration and also to venture into higher education and
entrepreneurship.
