Critical to a biomedical engineer is the extensive amount of technical knowledge required in order to be a highly competent engineer in addition to having a strong knowledge of the physiological and biological sciences. You'll get that background at Bucknell.

The department strives to achieve a process of continuous improvement of the curricula, provide a faculty which is professionally current in their field and to maintain state-of-the-art facilities.

To do this, the department offers the following:

• A Bachelor of Science in biomedical engineering degree for students seeking a comprehensive education in biomedical engineering.
• A minor in biomedical engineering for students in other engineering disciplines seeking a basic competency in the discipline and enhanced background in the life sciences.
• Elective courses to support the needs of students outside of the major and minor programs.
