Program Outcomes
Program Outcomes describe the performance of our students at the time of graduation.
The BME program has demonstrated that our students have attained:
- an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering in the solution of biomedical engineering problems
- an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data
- an ability to design a biomedical engineering 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 including working on a biomedical engineering senior design project
- an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems
- an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility
- an ability to communicate effectively
- the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global 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
- an understanding of biology and physiology, and the capability to apply advanced mathematics (including differential equations and statistics), science, and engineering to solve the problems at the interface of engineering and biology
- an ability to make measurements on and interpret data from living systems, addressing the problems associated with the interaction between living and non-living materials and systems
- a knowledge of a culture outside the US and basic familiarity of another language (if applicable).
