Bioengineering

The Bioengineering program provides a broad engineering and biotechnology curriculum while offering a focus on a specific engineering track that best fits students' interests and career choices.

Program Highlights

Choose between six tracks ranging from the study of tissue engineering and biological delivery to the development, control, and characterization of biological processes for water treatment and environmental restoration.

The program features two components: an interdisciplinary core curriculum, including one class outside of students' chosen sub-specialty to increase the breadth of bioengineering knowledge; and courses required by the department for students' chosen track.

The degree requires a minimum of 30 credits and the fulfillment of at least 10 courses at the 100-level or above with grades of S (satisfactory) or at least a B-.

Tracks include:

• Bioinformatics
• Biomaterials
• Biomechanical Systems and Devices
• Cell and Bioprocess Engineering
• Environmental Biotechnology
• Signals and Systems
