The Biomedical Engineering degree program is an interdisciplinary degree program that combines the knowledge core of engineering disciplines with scientific inquiry to solve problems encountered in living systems. Through course work in engineering, mathematics and the sciences, students focus on finding solutions to engineering problems. By applying the principles, analytical tools, and problem solving techniques of engineering, integrated with knowledge of the life sciences, students utilize their skills to design innovative instruments, devices and/or software for a biomedical application. This program is for students who are interested in designing instruments, devices, new procedures and/or software to create diagnostic and therapeutic tools as well as students interested in working in research.<br>Students who are interested in designing instruments, devices, new procedures and/or software to create diagnostic and therapeutic tools, as well as students interested in working in research, find a wide range of career opportunities when they graduate. Graduates are uniquely prepared to influence and improve human health in a variety of ways finding opportunities in manufacturing settings, health science companies, hospitals and research entities working in medical equipment design, bioinstrumentation, biomaterials, biomechanics, scientific research, medical imaging and rehabilitation engineering.<br>Upon completion of the program, graduates are expected to: Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering and technology as required by the field of biomedical engineering, Use math, science, and engineering processes to analyze problems, formulate solutions, conduct experiments and interpret data, Communicate engineering and scientific information using oral and written arguments and visual presentation, Recognize and evaluate ethical, global, and social impacts of biomedical innovation and Integrate scientific knowledge, problem-solving skills, and engineering tools to design a model for a biomedical engineering application.
