Biomedical Engineering (B.S.E.)
Were you amazed by the first fully-enclosed artificial heart? Biomedical wonders are advancing at a rapid rate. Engineers in this
field use their vast knowledge to contribute to the marvels of modern medicine by developing new research technologies that may
facilitate early detection of disease, or provide more effective treatments. Biomedical engineers work closely with the medical
and pharmaceutical professions to perfect everything from drug-delivery to possible life-saving devices. They also work with
mechanical and electrical engineers in many industries related to aerospace and transportation, where they contribute to the
delivery of medical technologies.
As a student in the Biomedical Engineering program, you will look at the human body as a machine, studying how different body parts work mechanically. This program can prepare you for graduate programs in biomedical engineering and related areas.
Enrolling in the Pre-Medicine Option will prepare you for entrance into medical school.
