我個人的經驗是,如果你想要在美國找跟醫藥相關的業界工作 我比較不建議特別跑去讀醫工 醫工讀的比較雜也比較窄,不如讀化工,材料,機械或是電機底下偏生物工程的研究 在業界的BME大部分都不是讀BME出來的 BME博士找到的工作,很多也是跟原來做的研究根本打不著關係。 但是你如果要讀BME的話要有的體認是: 雖然你好像會被訓練成十八般武藝都會,但是你的化學不會比讀化學的強 生物生化phisiology也不會比讀biochem/biology或是MD畢業的強 數學跟結構概念不會比化工機械的強 你一定要守住至少一個強的,然後慢慢彌補其他的(有缺再補) 如果要讀博士的話,選對老師跟選有興趣的領域比選學校重要多了。 但是醫工博士就要有做無限久的 postdoc 的準備 如果想要去業界工作的話,做個要寫論文的MS就好了。 還有啊,雜誌上寫的不要太相信。 以上是我大學讀化學,研究所讀化工(drug delivery/Tissue Engineering) 以及在美國醫藥界 六年+ 的經驗談 ※ 引述《Tachiman (Aal izz well!)》之銘言: : ※ 引述《VIATOR (小小書僮)》之銘言: : : CNN money 的排名如下 : : http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bestjobs/2010/full_list/ : : 其中BME的10-year job growth是最高的 : : http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/bestjobs/2010/jobgrowth/index.html : : 發展性可能不錯 : 感謝板上大家這麼的熱心回答!我在這邊轉貼一封剛剛收到的email。 : 寄信給我的人是一位加州人,航太所碩士,哪間學校的我聽一聽忘記了,不過確定不是USC : 畢業的,目前一年有幾個月會來台灣學中文,而他工作的公司是做DNA的(在美國)。我是 : 三個月前在路邊攤吃咖哩飯時,他跟我談起來的。 : 昨天晚上我寄了mail問他,他給了我以下的回答: : As far as biomedical engineering, it can be good or bad. As you know the : economy in the whole world is very difficult right now. If you want to know : my advice I would say the difference between making it a good thing or a bad : thing it depends on how much effort you put into it. I would suggest spending : as much time at the school as possible...do your classes slowly and really : concentrate on working on projects. Try to get a job with one of your : professors doing research with them...do internships in the summer. Dont try : to finish your masters degree as fast as you can. There are a lot of jobs for : biomedical especially for USC graduates but the companies want to see work : experience. Take the minimum amount of classes you are required each term and : spend as much time as you can working for your professors and doing : internships. The professors are always needing students to do work for them. : Dont be afraid to ask them to help! Even if they dont need they often know of : other professors who need help! If you do this it will be really good. If you : just take your classes and get your masters it will not be nearly as valuable! : A masters and this kind of work experience and you will be able to get a job : no problem!!!! : 所以說多花點時間在課業與實驗室上才是王道嗎? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 76.24.30.88
Tachiman:感謝前輩的回答,我個人是很想唸個醫工碩士再加上跟實驗 06/17 22:33
Tachiman:也不排斥唸兩個碩士來加強其中一項技能,因為之前有聽學 06/17 22:35
Tachiman:長說過醫工學的太多了不易專精之類的話題。 06/17 22:37
VIATOR:同意要守住至少一個強的!不過醫工博士做postdoc不用無限久 06/23 05:48
VIATOR:postdoc要做很久通常是比較純生物的 06/23 05:49
