Biomedical Engineering (BME) is the application of the principles and tools of engineering to the enhancement of scientific research and problem solving in the biological, pharmacological, and medical fields. In addition to receiving a firm and comprehensive foundation in the physical sciences and engineering, students in Utah’s undergraduate Biomedical Engineering program obtain a strong background in biology and physiology as well as the physical sciences and mathematics. This foundation serves as the the source for ideas, inspiration, and concepts to solve engineering problems in modern healthcare. The program requires four full-time years to complete for students with a complete high school mathematics and science background. Biomedical Engineering is of particular relevance and benefit to students with interests in the application and relationship of biology, mathematics, chemistry, and physics to medicine and health. An undergraduate degree in Biomedical Engineering is also particularly effective preparation for studies in medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine |
