This STEM curriculum explores both artificial and biological materials within biomedical engineering and dental applications. The program offers coursework and research opportunities that deliver thorough understanding and hands-on practice with materials, emphasizing biomolecular and cellular responses to medical/dental implants, device development, compliance standards, and surgical needs. Prospective students often come from backgrounds in biology, engineering, chemistry, and clinical practice. Alumni pursue careers as biomedical researchers and engineers in corporate settings or academic medicine. Some graduates continue their education through doctoral studies in related disciplines or advanced clinical training programs.
A bachelor's degree, or the equivalent, from an accredited/government recognized college or university. Most such degrees will be four or more years in length; UB recognizes some three-year degrees, but not all.
