Biomedical engineers utilize engineering principles to address challenges related to the human body, frequently engaging in medical research, creating healthcare equipment, and pioneering technologies to enhance and track human wellbeing. We leverage the core competencies of both chemical and biomedical engineering to drive groundbreaking innovations that tackle critical health, environmental, and industrial challenges. Recent research from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering demonstrates how AI-enhanced high-performance computing is being harnessed to fight blood conditions such as thrombosis, which can lead to cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes.
A baccalaureate degree in chemical engineering or an allied field from an accredited college or university;
