In biomedical engineering, students collaborate with faculty to construct interdisciplinary understanding and create clinically applicable solutions for human health—ranging from designing artificial organs and recovery devices to developing sophisticated detection systems and enhanced medical imaging technologies. Texas Engineering graduates have pursued careers in academic settings and diverse sectors of healthcare and biotechnology. The Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering (BSBME) is an undergraduate program that merges engineering methodologies with biological sciences. Alumni of this program emerge as engineers equipped with fundamental training to address medicine's most intricate challenges.
Optimal medical solutions arise from teams with varied technical viewpoints. Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary domain that incorporates elements of chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineering alongside human physiology to tackle healthcare issues. We provide a comprehensive undergraduate curriculum covering engineering and science basics, biomaterials, physiology, instrumentation, biomechanics, engineering design, and additional topics.
This technical specialization caters to students interested in medical imaging science and instrumentation design. Two career paths are offered: biomedical imaging and biomedical instrumentation. Students must complete 12 semester hours from Technical Area 1 electives, with at least 6 hours from engineering courses.
