Overview

The Department of Bioengineering has a long-standing and unique relationship with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) and other academic departments at the University of Pittsburgh as well as neighboring Carnegie Mellon University. Our faculty are shared with these organizations, offering our graduate and undergraduate students access to state-of-the-art facilities and a wide array of research opportunities.

Key Features

In keeping with the two-fold mission of the Department of Bioengineering to provide a high-quality engineering education to both undergraduate and graduate students, and be a leader in research in specific areas encompassed by Bioengineering, the Bioengineering undergraduate curriculum has the objective to prepare students to achieve their post-baccalaureate goal of:

a) an industrial career in bioengineering or related field;

b) graduate school (M.S. and Ph.D. programs related to bioengineering); or

c) professional school (Medical, Dental, Health-Related, Business, and Law).

To achieve their particular goal(s), students are:

a) provided with a broad knowledge of the technical and social principles of bioengineering as well as a focused education in one track area within bioengineering; and
b) prepared through educational experiences beyond the classroom that deepen their understanding of the technical and non-technical issues in bioengineering process and design.
