The practice of medicine has seen an accelerated incorporation of technical innovations. Biomedical Engineering (BE) has emerged as a medium combining medicine and engineering to provide materials, tools and techniques advancing health care research, diagnosis and treatment. Under the auspices of the Interdisciplinary degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering, highly motivated students who wish to focus their engineering careers on assisting in the struggle against illness and disease may concentrate their efforts in Biomedical Engineering. The Electrical Engineering Concentration within the biomedical engineering program is designed to assist those students who wish to pursue a career or graduate programs which focus on the electrical side of the field. This includes (but is not limited to) the maintenance and evaluation of electrical instrumentation used in all aspects of health-related fields.
