The increased emphasis on health care and scientific, engineering and technological advances have contributed to a rising demand for biomedical engineers. Biomedical engineers often:
- Research and design systems and products
- Install, adjust, maintain, repair or provide technical support for biomedical equipment
- Evaluate the safety, efficiency and effectiveness of biomedical equipment
- Train clinicians and other personnel on the proper use of equipment
- Work with life scientists, chemists and medical scientists to research the applications of engineering to biological systems of humans and animals
The U.S. Department of Labor projects biomedical engineering jobs to grow at a much faster rate than the average for all occupations through 2022.
This interdisciplinary degree program allows you the flexibility to explore various facets of engineering, the life sciences and medicine. You can concentrate your studies on biomedical instrumentation, biomechanics, bioinformatics, biomaterials or biotechnology.
