CBEAS is the one & only college for Biomedical Engineering in Nepal.
Studying biomedical engineering provides students with the skills to innovate in the healthcare system, advance scientific knowledge, and make a positive impact on people's lives, making it an attractive option for many aspiring engineers and scientists.
We provide practical exposure to our students in various hospitals and institutions, within and outside the Kathmandu Valley, to enhance their skills and knowledge in hospital equipment.
CBEAS supports and encourages participation in sports and other extra curricular skillful activities.
College of Biomedical Engineering & Applied Sciences (CBEAS), affiliated to the Purbanchal University, was established in 2005. It is conveniently located at Lalitpur-1, Kupondole, where first-rate education is provided to all students. Equipped with excellent infrastructure and well-furnished classrooms, the college building has all the facilities required for smooth and well planned functioning of the courses. This college is the first one among the very few in Asia to provide higher education in Biomedical Engineering for Bachelor level students.

With a profoundly viable administration and a group of experienced educators who are always ready to inspire and aspire students,CBEAS has been successful to position itself as preeminent engineering college. It's well equipped laboratories,calm environment and great library facilities have been the driving force to bring out best in me.Additionally, the cordial relationship among senior and junior prompts a positive learning environment.I find CBEAS to be an ideal platform for acquiring knowledge and pursuing my career with proper guidance. Being an pioneer biomedical engineering college established with the motto of educating enthusiastic youth with excellence, it has been contributing to broaden the education horizon of the nation.The academically rich CBEAS,in my opinion, is the ideal road to the bright future and my best decision.I feel great pleasure and honour to be identified as a "CBESIAN".
Recent Graduate, CBEAS
Intrigued by the world of technology and curious about human body and its complex mechanisms, I was unsure about the career path i should pursue. I was lost not knowing which to choose. During this dilemma I came across Biomedical engineering, a career field that merges engineering world with medicine and also provides us an opportunity to ameliorate thousands of life through it. Hence, i joined this esteemed college. After spending few years here i can proudly say that i have never regretted this decision even once. CBEAS is indeed the best academic institution we student can ask for, with very supportive administration and helpful teachers to guild us through the journey of being a successful biomedical engineer.
Biomedical Engineer, Ministry of Health Bagmati Province
My journey at CBEAS has been absolutely amazing and the college faculty as well as administration has supported me and my endeavors throughout. I entered this college 5 years ago with the expectation of being a good Biomedical Engineer and the journey there after has been a memorable one. The college focuses equally on both theory and practical education, organizes regular hospital visits with the aim of providing the knowledge about various modern medical devices. The college even funds for our final year project and has also provided the experience of various international conferences.

Fifth Semester
Biomedical Engineering is the application of principles of engineering to biology and medicine which combines the design and problem solving techniques of engineering with medical sciences for advanced health care treatment. It covers a wide range of areas from cell and tissue engineering to modeling of human organs, implantable devices, and diagnostics and therapeutic medical devices and equipment.
Biomedical engineers are needed all over the world, in both developed and underdeveloped regions. These engineers are in high demand in the global biomedical market. In Nepal, they are extensively employed in hospitals, nursing homes, medical colleges, and medical equipment companies. The government of Nepal is also keen on creating and increasing positions in government hospitals. Furthermore, graduates of this course can establish their own independent industries, thereby creating more jobs.
Biomedical engineers can work in various roles such as designing medical devices, conducting research in healthcare technologies, managing medical equipment, or working in regulatory affairs.
Examples include designing prosthetics, developing diagnostic instruments, creating imaging systems (like MRI or CT scanners), and designing therapeutic devices (like pacemakers or insulin pumps).
Trends include personalized medicine, wearable medical devices, artificial intelligence in healthcare, biomaterials development, and telemedicine technologies.
Challenges include regulatory hurdles, ensuring devices meet safety standards, translating research from the lab to clinical practice, and addressing the needs of diverse patient populations.
