The Bachelor of Science degree program in Biomedical Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. Some BS graduates are employed in industry and medical centers. Others continue studies in biomedical engineering and other fields. Students with engineering ability and an interest in medicine may consider the undergraduate biomedical engineering program as an exciting alternative to conventional premedical programs. The undergraduate program has three major components: (1) Engineering Core, (2) BME Core, and (3) BME Track Courses. The Engineering Core provides a fundamental background in mathematics, sciences, and engineering. The BME Core integrates engineering with biomedical science to solve biomedical problems. Hands-on experience in BME is developed through undergraduate laboratory and project courses. In addition, by choosing BME Track Courses, the student can study a specific area in depth. This integrated program is designed to ensure that BME graduates are competent engineers. Students may select open electives for educational breadth or depth or to meet entrance requirements of medical school or other professional career choices. BME faculty serves as student advisors to guide students in choosing the program of study most appropriate for individual needs and interests. Program Educational Objectives At the undergraduate level, we direct our efforts toward two educational objectives that describe the performance of alumni 3-6 years after graduation. Our graduates will successfully enter and complete post-baccalaureate advanced degree programs, including those in biomedical engineering. Our graduates will obtain jobs in the biomedical arena and advance to positions of greater responsibility. Student Outcomes As preparation for achieving the above educational objectives, the BS degree program in Biomedical Engineering is designed so that students attain: An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering appropriate to the biomedical engineering An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility An ability to communicate effectively The ability to communicate the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning A knowledge of contemporary issues An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice This program focuses on Biomaterials Track. In addition to this, it offers Biomedical Devices and Instrumentation Track and Biomechanics Track.

More programs from the university

Although its origins date to 1826, the University in its present form is the result of the 1967 federation of Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University. The two institutions had shared adjacent campuses since the late nineteenth century, and were involved in cooperative efforts for many years. Today, Case Western Reserve's enrollment and resources, distributed among undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs that encompass the arts and sciences, dental medicine, engineering, law, management, medicine, nursing, and social work, achieve a balance that is distinctive among American universities. Case Western Reserve University is located in University Circle, a 550-acre, park-like concentration of approximately 50 cultural, medical, educational, religious, and social service institutions located at the eastern edge of the city center. University Circle attracts visitors from throughout the region and the world to its concerts, theater performances, athletic events, art shows, public lectures, exhibits, and restaurants. Housing, shopping, and recreational facilities are all located in the area.
