    • Answer 2 
      •  An efficient Biomedical Engineer should know how to work at the component level so that when doing repairs, the biomed will not have to rely heavily on another person to do repairs. This also applies to higher levels of biomed such as R&D due to the heavy amounts of electrical and mechanical engineering they are exposed to as well.
    • Evidence
      • Many new biomeds do not have this skill and get used to sending the defective equipment to someone else in order to get it repaired.
      • When working in R&D, different kinds of medical equipment use different kinds of electronics. Due to the fact that you will be creating, designing, and researching these technologies, you must have an understanding of all the functions of the equipment to the component level. 
      • Many trainees don't see components or work with them, thus making those who have the experience seem more qualified and able to do their job.
