Department of Biomedical Engineering

From its early days focused on the development of medical devices, biomedical engineering has developed into an area of extreme breadth and diversity. Biomedical engineers may work to develop improved materials for implantable artificial organs, write software to analyze medical data, or study biological fluid dynamics. These well-educated engineers may choose careers in the medical device or biotech industry, might further the basic knowledge of the field in an academic environment, or continue on to pursue a professional degree. Critical to a biomedical engineer is the extensive amount of technical knowledge required in order to be a highly competent engineer in addition to having a strong knowledge of the physiological and biological sciences.
