Bioengineering, also referred to as biomedical engineering, is the application of engineering tools and approaches to solve problems in biology and medicine. It is a broad and growing field that draws upon rapid advances in technology and computation, as well as on unprecedented growth in basic biological understanding.
Engineering design experiences are built into each year of the curriculum culminating in a senior design project. The impact of engineering, technologies and computer science on biomedicine is immense, and can only be harnessed through integrative multidisciplinary training in Bioengineering. With the growing demand for better health care, the need for bioengineers is high.
