To receive the B.S. Degree Program in Biomedical Engineering, each student must
satisfy the requirements of one of three Biomedical Engineering Tracks:
Biomaterials, Biomechanics or Biomedical Instrumentation. The
course options for each of these
tracks are given below. Required courses
for each track are shown in boldface type.
A total of
20 credits
(including required courses) from one of the lists must be taken.
It
is not permissible to “mix and match” courses from different track lists
without expressed, written permission from the ABBE Department Head.
Biomedical courses that are offered as
special topics courses (e.g. BE491 or BE597)
may only be used with the written
permission of the department head. Students
should work out their schedules in
advance to ensure that all graduation requirements
are met.
