As part of its ongoing series of scientific activities aimed at enhancing students' practical skills, Future University's Biomedical Engineering Department organized a specialized workshop titled "Fundamentals of Engineering Drawing." The workshop, led by Engineer Baraa Mahdi Saleh, aimed to equip students with the necessary engineering representation tools for designing medical systems.
About the Workshop:
The workshop aimed to establish strong skills in the universal language of engineering communication (engineering drawing). The session focused on how to translate medical ideas and innovations into precise technical drawings, explaining the fundamental principles that ensure accurate implementation and simulation of complex medical devices and equipment.
Methodology:
The workshop employed a practical presentation approach, covering:
• An introduction to engineering drawing tools and their professional applications in preparing technical drawings and standard scales.
• An explanation of methods for representing geometric objects and clarifying projections, which is essential for modeling prosthetics and medical implants.
• A discussion of approved engineering standards to ensure the compatibility of designs with production and manufacturing processes in the medical field. The hall witnessed remarkable student engagement, as the scientific discussions contributed to enhancing students' ability to connect engineering concepts with practical applications, thus developing their innovation and design skills within engineering laboratories.
Objectives of the Scientific Activity:
This scientific activity contributes to achieving several key objectives, including:
• Objective Four (Quality Education): By equipping students with the fundamental technical skills that form the cornerstone of engineering studies and their applications.
• Objective Nine (Industry and Innovation): By preparing a generation of engineers capable of designing and modeling medical innovations that contribute to the development of the national medical device industry.
• Objective Eight (Decent Work and Economic Growth): By raising the efficiency of graduates in technical design skills, thereby increasing their competitiveness in consulting firms and engineering companies.
