Biomedical Engineering – Second Major
Class of 2009
The second major in biomedical engineering is offered to engineering students
and to liberal arts students. Students must enroll in conjunction with another
undergraduate departmental major. For the second major in biomedical
engineering, students are required to complete ten courses. No more than five of
these courses may be used to fulfill the concentration requirement of the first
major. All ten courses must be taken for a letter grade.
Design track (for engineering students)
The ten credits required for the second major in biomedical engineering for
engineering students (design track) are as follows:
- BIO 13 (Cells and Organisms) or one course from the list of Foundation
courses for the BSBME;
- All eight non-research credits from the list of Concentration courses
for the BSBME;
- Any Biomedical Engineering course.
Systems track (for liberal arts students)
The ten credits required for the second major in biomedical engineering for
liberal arts students (systems track) are as follows:
Two Core courses:
BME/EE/ES 50 - Intro. to Biomedical Engineering
