The global community has accelerated the spread of the virus. Medicine alone cannot solve the pandemic. Understanding information from specialists is not easy. Information is overflowing due to the progress of networks. Individuals are required to have the ability to sort huge amounts of information. How do you use information for your personal behavior? Following social campaign can lead to inconsistencies in individual behavior. The field of biomedical engineering is not limited to the fusion of medicine and engineering, but is a complex field including various fields: biology, informatics, etc. In their courses, students have the opportunity to learn pandemic-related techniques: for example, air purification techniques (clean room), and sterilization techniques (cell culture). Multi-disciplinary fields supply education to understand complex issues. They improve communication skills of students on global problems.
