生物医学工程师将工程设计和分析技术应用于物理系统和生物系统之间的接口问题。他们设计解决方案以帮助人们更好地生活。生物医学工程师设计的设备和仪器可帮助医生进行疾病的医学诊断和治疗，并改善自然身体功能受损的人们的生活质量。此类创新的例子包括全部可植入心脏，起搏器和除颤器，成像设备，假肢，替换部件，便携式心电图机和心肺机。<br> <br>我们的计划基础广泛，涉及多个学科，旨在培养毕业生为生物技术行业的职业做好准备，进入医学院或在研究生院或专业学校继续学业的人。史蒂文斯生物医学工程师接触到广泛的课程，不仅在数学
Biomedical engineers design devices and instruments that improve the quality of life for medical patients and aid physicians in medical diagnosis and treatment of disease, such as total implantable hearts, pacemakers and defibrillators, imaging devices, prostheses, replacement parts, portable EKG machines, and heart-lung machines.<br><br>The biomedical engineering program at Stevens exposes you to a broad-based, multidisciplinary curriculum that not only trains you in the fundamentals of math, science and engineering, but also in biology, physiology and the interactions of engineering materials with biological surfaces.<br><br>In this program, you'll experience a strong design component that includes a capstone senior design project a team effort to design, build and test a medical device. You'll also get extensive laboratory experience in cutting-edge research with faculty in areas like biorobotics, brain-machine interface, spinal implants, lung mechanics, emergency medicine (with Hoboken University Medical Center), and tissue engineering. <br>Our program is broad-based and multidisciplinary, designed to produce graduates who are prepared for careers in the biotech industry, to enter medical school, or to continue their education in graduate or professional school. Stevens biomedical engineers are exposed to a broad curriculum that not only trains them in the fundamentals of math, science and engineering, but also in biology, physiology and the interactions of engineering materials with biological surfaces. The program has a very strong design component and extensive laboratory experience in making measurements on living systems.The BME degree at Stevens includes the general engineering courses taken by other engineering disciplines, including eight semesters of design. The last three semesters of design are program-specific, with the last two semesters dedicated to a Capstone Design project a team effort to design, build and test a medical device. A typical BME senior design has two or more faculty advisors, including a Stevens faculty member and a physician from one of our collaborating medical facilities.
