Nine hours of BME technical elective courses are required. The purpose of these electives is to provide students with an opportunity for in-depth learning in within sub-disciplines of biomedical engineering. These electives may be selected from the following list*.
Students may use these electives to probe more deeply into multiple sub-disciplines, or choose to concentrate all courses within the same sub-discipline. For the latter case, the following combinations of electives are suggested:
- Cardiovascular Systems: BMED 4751, 4757, 4758 and/or 4784
- Biomechanics: BMED 4751, 4757 and 4758
- Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering: BMED 4500, 4751, 4758 and/or 4765
- Neuroengineering: BMED 4400, 4752 and 4784
- Medical Imaging: BMED 4750, 4752 and 4783
*Engineering courses not included in this list would need to be approved in advance by the Associate Chair for Undergraduate Studies. Such courses should be at least at the 4000-level and have content that adds depth to an area within the BMED curriculum. Seniors with a grade point average of at least 3.0 may schedule graduate level BMED courses as acceptable alternatives, subject to the approval of the course professor and the Associate Chair for Undergraduate Studies.
