Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Bachelor of Arts in Biomedical Engineering
Duration4 Years
LevelBachelors Program
  • Program is ranked 22nd by U.S News & World Report 2018
  • Biomedical Engineering lies at the intersection of the physical and life sciences, incorporating principles from physics and chemistry to understand the operation of living systems
  • An education in Biomedical Engineering, and engineering more broadly, enables students to translate abstract hypothesis and scientific knowledge into working systems (e.g., prosthetic devices, imaging systems, and biopharmaceuticals)
  • The overarching intellectual goal of biomedical engineering is to apply quantitative engineering analysis to understand the operation of living systems and design novel systems to satisfy unmet needs in medicine and industry
  • Major objectives of the program is to
    • Utilize mathematical analysis and modelling to capture the function of systems from subcellular to organism scales
    • Understand and apply the fundamental engineering disciplines (thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, kinetics); sciences (physics, biology, chemistry); and mathematics (statistics, differential equations) to solve biomedical problems
