 Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary field where engineering principles are applied to medicine and biology. In this class, we'll study a range of topics, including such things as designing a smart bandage to more complicated things like designing a neuroprosthetic that interfaces with the brain. This course introduces students to different subspecialties of biomedical engineering, including biorelectronics, instrumentation, medical diagnostics, biomaterials, biomechanics, rehabilitation engineering, as well as design. In this class, you'll be assessed through homework sets, hands-on lab activities, research article review, discussion boards, and design projects while you explore and apply those principles you learned from the online lectures and handouts. Biomedical engineering is an exciting and rapidly growing field. This class will expose you to the basic concepts needed to prepare you for biomedical engineering classes in the future. It's going to be a fun semester.
