Engineering colleges in Kerala that offer Biomedical engineering courses have a set selection process and admission criteria for UG & PG level programmes. Take a look at the BTech Biomedical Engineering colleges in Kerala eligibility criteria below:

• Eligibility for BTech/BE in Biomedical Engineering: For admission to the undergraduate degree programmes in Biomedical engineering a candidate should have completed their Class 12 education in Science stream from a recognised board.
• Eligibility for M.Tech in Biomedical Engineering: For admission to the master's programme, candidates will have to complete their graduation in the Biomedical Engineering/ Biotechnology branch from a recognised university/institute.
• Admissions to BTech programmes in Tamil Nadu are generally based on entrance exams such as the KEAM, GATE, JEE MAin, etc.

The syllabus of KEAM is prescribed by CEE Kerala. The KEAM syllabus comprises all three subjects Physics Chemistry & Mathematics. KEAM syllabus is based on class 11 and 12 examinations.

Hello, Biomedical engineering has an immense scope, however, you should first check the entry requirements, since this course requires engineering basics, you may have to complete some pre-requisite courses. Work is vast in this area from designing electrical circuits to building artificial body parts, you would be combining engineering and biology. There is a huge scope in RnD. Salary range will depend on the job role, county and the state you're working in. Typical its range is from $50000-$90000 annually. Reports suggest that the employment of Biomedical Engineers will grow in 2024 in the United States with the advancement of technology.

The table below shows the region-wise distribution of top Biomedical Polytechnic colleges Kerala along with their number and names of colleges:

Regions	Number/Names of Colleges
Thrissur	4  (Sahrdaya College of Engineering and Technology, Sahrdaya College of Engineering and Technology, Malabar College of Engineering & Technology, etc.)
Kozhikode	3  (KMCT College of Engineering for Women, Model Polytechnic College, Vadakara, KMCT Polytechnic College, etc.)
Kollam	2  (Thangal Kunju Musaliar Institute of Technology, Thangal Kunju Musaliar Institute of Technology)
Ernakulum	2  (Adi Shankara Institute of Engineering and Technology, SNGIST)

Some of the most important BTech Biomedical Engineering subject specializations that are covered at almost all the best colleges and universities in the country include Biomaterials Science, Biomechanics, Biomedical Imaging, Bioinstrumentation, Bioinformatics, and Tissue Engineering.

All of these subjects will give you a lot of knowledge about the field of Biomedical Engineering that will eventually help you in the future when you enter into the job arena and prepare you well in advance. You may also pursue M.Tech in Biomedical Engineering later.
