Biomedical Engineering is an interdisciplinary concentration designed for students interested in applying the methods and tools of engineering to the subject matter of biology and the life sciences. It is jointly administered by the Division of Engineering and the Division of Biology and Medicine.
As a relatively new field, bioengineering is undergoing rapid change. Current topics in bioengineering include injury research and rehabilitation, neuroengineering (neural networks), and biotechnology (from electronic instrumentation to genetic engineering).Furthermore, traditional areas of engineering are reformulated to study living systems. Thus, biomechanics analyses stresses and strains in human tissue; biomaterials searches for new materials...
Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary field which not only integrates fundamental scientific knowledge with medicine and biology, but also stimulates the interaction of engineers from all of the traditional disciplines. 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...
Chemical engineers are experts in designing and analyzing products and production systems which make use of chemical, physical, and/or biological transformations of raw materials. Their education must exhibit the breadth that allows them to form a bridge from the atomic-scale nature of matter all the way to large commercial-scale operations.
Chemical engineering products range from highly specialized items such as human drug delivery devices and...
The interdisciplinary Bioengineering program is centered on a mechanistic understanding of the life sciences and builds upon fundamental molecular, genomic and cellular principles to address challenges and opportunities involving, for example, medical devices, implants and sensors, tissue engineering, bioinformatics and imaging.
Great advances have recently been made in the fields of genetics/molecular biology as well as predictive engineering analysis...
The Department of Electrical Engineering administers an option in Biomedical and Clinical Engineering that allows the student to acquire substantive competence in biomedical engineering and biology. The program builds upon a strong base of biology, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering science to develop a clinically oriented biomedical engineer to serve medical and industrial needs. It includes a core of standard electrical engineering...
Bioimaging is the study of bio/medical phenomena based on the information provided in digital images. It draws upon advances in signal processing, optics, probe chemistry, molecular biology, and machine learning, to provide answers to biological and medical questions from biological and medical images acquired in digital form. Students in this track will gain understanding of the technologies involved in acquiring images, the mathematical principles...
Biomechanics refers to the application of principles of solid, fluid, and continuum mechanics to the study of the structure, function, and behavior of biological and medical systems under the influence of mechanical forces. Biomechanics draws on advances in biology, physics and applied mathematics, as well as new technologies in mechanical probing, imaging, and scientific computing. Biomechanics models provide quantitative descriptions of molecule,...
The SBME track is aimed at helping highly motivated students who have a strong sense of career direction that falls beyond the scopes of regular BME tracks. Students taking SBME track must fulfill all the core BME requirements, but are allowed to design the "track" portion of the curriculum. Example areas include biomedical robotics, neural engineering, and computational biomedical engineering.
The SBME track is fundamentally different from the GBME...
The Case Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Biomedical Engineering was established in 1972 and is fully accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology. The undergraduate program has four major components:
•Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (EBME 105): This freshman course provides students with an overview of biomedical engineering research and applications, with substantive content that does not require advanced...
