Biomedical engineering (BME), like any branch of engineering, uses scientific and mathematical principles to solve relevant problems facing the world. The programme offered by the Duquesne University is focused on improving human health. It is a large field and encompasses many distinct areas such as:
- biomedical optics
- biomaterials
- orthopedic biomechanics
- biophysical interactions
- drug delivery
- biosensor development
On a national level, the Occupational Outlook Handbook (US Bureau of Labor Statistics) indicates the field is growing much faster than average. Biomedical engineers are also among the Fastest Growing Occupations in Pennsylvania.
