设计人工器官和组织，开发新的药物输送系统，创建或修改创新的医疗设备或增强医学成像技术只是生物医学工程师改善他人健康和幸福的几项努力。生物医学工程学位将工程实践与细胞生物学，解剖学和生理学知识相结合，为各种医疗保健问题提供了创新的解决方案。生物医学工程利用广泛的生物学和医学知识来解决针对医疗保健和人体的问题。生物医学工程师设计仪器，设备和软件，将来自许多技术来源的知识汇集起来，以开发新的医疗程序，或进行解决临床问题所需的研究。他们经常发挥协调作用，利用他们在工程和医学方面的背景与医疗保健专业人员合作来确定问
Biomedical engineering leverages the vast knowledge base of engineering, biology, and medicine to solve problems focused on health care and the human body. Biomedical engineers design instruments, devices, and software, bring together knowledge from many technical sources to develop new medical products, procedures, and pharmaceuticals, and conduct research needed to solve clinical problems. They often serve as coordinators and big picture problem solvers. By utilizing their expertise in engineering and biological science, biomedical engineers are often the bridge that connects the clinical aspect of medicine with the technological understanding of engineering to design, develop, and implement innovative solutions to health care problems.<br><br>Today's careers require advanced degrees grounded in real-world experience. RIT's Combined Accelerated Bachelor's/Master's Degrees enable you to earn both a bachelor's and a master's degree in as little as five years of study, all while gaining the valuable hands-on experience that comes from co-ops, internships, research, study abroad, and more.
