This paper will discuss the design and impendingimplementation of a two-year “biomedical engineering technology” program tailored to meet thee-healthcare workforce needs of the end of this decade and those required as we move into the2020s for both clinical sites and home environments.IntroductionDuring the early 1970’s, Springfield Technical Community College (STCC), a commuter collegelocated in the center of Springfield, Massachusetts established a distinct two-year BiomedicalInstrumentation Technology (BMIT) associates in science (AS) degree program. The programwas typical of biomedical technology programs of the time and had the goal of graduatingtechnicians that could deal with biomedical equipment in a
