Purdue NewsGraduates of the program will be able to use their extensive background in engineering and life science to design, develop and implement new biomedical technologies in clinical medicine, industry and academia.
The interdisciplinary curriculum is a joint effort of the Schools of Engineering, Science and Veterinary Medicine on the West Lafayette campus, and the Schools of Engineering and Technology, School of Science, and Indiana University Schools of Medicine and Dentistry on the Indiana University-Purdue University campus in Indianapolis.
Through the new program, students may pursue a master of science or a doctor of philosophy degree biomedical engineering.
The program is tailored for students already holding an undergraduate degree in an engineering discipline, but students with a science degree - including the life sciences - are eligible to enroll.
