Our mission is to inspire and work with students as we develop and apply engineering methods to confront health science challenges.
The Department of Biomedical Engineering is committed to being a global leader in biomedical engineering scholarship. Our faculty, staff and students are all important parts of the team that provide distinctive opportunities for creative solutions to biomedical engineering research and design problems. We aim for: excellence in undergraduate and graduate education; meaningful and innovative research; and service dedicated to advancing the field of Biomedical Engineering.
Our undergraduate program provides students with the breadth required for participation in the interdisciplinary field of biomedical engineering and the depth required by engineers to advance the practice in our discipline. Our objective is to prepare graduates who are able to successfully pursue:
The Department was founded in 1977, so we are a relatively mature department in a new field — a field in which the potential for making meaningful contributions is unlimited. Our backgrounds are diverse, covering the areas of biomechanics, biomaterials, bioelectronics, biotransport and cell and tissue engineering. Our undergraduate and graduate teaching and research programs are extensive.
