Technical Electives (BIOMED)


Technical electives in the Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering curriculum provide the students with an opportunity to pursue areas of particular interest. Technical electives must meet the following criteria: (1) being primarily technical, (2) having a skill or theory component, and (3) being above an introductory level or having a high level of technical rigor. Because biomedical engineers work in a wide range of technical areas, the approved list of technical electives includes upper level courses across departments.

Biomedical Engineering Technical Elective list


At least six credits, ususally two courses, must be selected from the Biomedical Engineering Technical Elective List (excluding BMEG 366  or BMEG 466 ):

Engineering list


At least three credits, usually one course, must be selected from the following Engineering list (or the BME list above):

Chemical Engineering:


Materials Science and Engineering:


Additional technical elective courses


 Nine credits, usually three courses, may be selected from the STEM departments (or from any of the lists above):

Chemistry:


Statistics:


  • STAT400-699

Thesis:


(topic must be approved by faculty advisor)

Note:


Students may take up to six credits of Independent Study (BMEG 366 , BMEG 466 ) as engineering and STEM technical electives. The independent study project must be approved by the faculty advisor and by the Undergraduate Director. Additional upper-level and graduate-level courses may also be approved by the faculty advisor.
