Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering (Prosthetics and Orthotics) at UM

In Malaysia, there are about 300,000 disabled people due to various health and diseases problems. From this total, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), the disabled are in needs of Prosthetics and Orthotics (P&O) equipments lies about 0.5% from the total people in a country. Therefore, there are a total of 125,000 Malaysians are in needs for P&O services. The P&O services are available in local medical institutions such as Pusat Perubatan Universiti Malaya (PPUM), Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL), Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (HUKM), Pusat Latihan Perindustrian and Pemulihan Orang Kurang Upaya (PLPP) and Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM). There are also about 10 of private companies all over Malaysia that offer P&O services to patients in need.

Until to this day, there is no structured educational program being accredited by the International Society for Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO), an international committee in monitoring and regulating services and trainings in the P&O that is recognized by the WHO are available in Malaysia. The P&O services in Malaysia are practiced by technicians that obtained short and brief trainings locally and abroad using the ‘on-the-job training’ approach. The objective of Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering (Prosthetics and Orthotics) programme is to produce experts in the professional levels along with possessing strong knowledge in the P&O fields with the required international standards and current national requirements. This programme will produce responsible, innovative and proactive graduates in improving the quality of services to patients/clients within their respectively professional care. This programme will be able to improve the position of the current P&O practitioners to be respectable individuals in the society with multi-disciplinary expertise that is being practice in the rehabilitation medicine services. The Department of Biomedical Engineering of University of Malaya will play a major role as the catalyst to the development of the rehabilitation medicine engineering fields in Malaysia. This programme will be accredited by the International Society of Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO) and also the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) of Malaysia.

OPTICAL COMBUSTION ENGINE~~~~ A BRIEF INTRODUCTION

1.       INTRODUCTION  Figure  1  : Optical Single Cylinder Engine                 Internal combustion (IC) performance is one of the important aspects in automotive industry. The higher the IC performance, the powerful the engine car to be, therefore cause the higher request between the lovers of high performance cars. However, engineers had faced lots of problem in the way to determine the exact and more accurate performance of IC engine. These problems happen due to lots of factor such as the material that IC engine made of from. The IC engine is made of from all-metal materials and this prevent engineers to gain a detailed insight of the mixing, combustion and emissions formation processes occurred in the cylinder of IC engine. Therefore, the Optical Engine has been introduced as the improvement to the original system. High-speed imaging combined with the optica...
