Overview

Biomedical Engineering (BME) is a dynamic field and combines traditional engineering approaches with other crucial sciences to advance technology and improve quality of life—you could be working to solve problems in biology, chemistry, or medicine.

Specialized areas of BME include bioinstrumentation, biomaterials, biomechanics, medical imaging, orthopedic engineering, and systems physiology.

For students interested in a career in medicine or other post-baccalaureate health professions, biomedical engineering can prepare students with related technical skills and practical applications necessary for success.

Careers

Biomedical engineers continually adapt to meet rapidly evolving requirements of the government, scientific, and medical communities. Your future employment opportunities include designing and testing artificial organs, electrical muscle stimulators, drug delivery systems, artificial joints, prosthetics, and medical imaging technologies. Wright State University BME pre-med students are also prepared for entrance into medical, dental, or other post-baccalaureate health professional programs.

Want to start your own company? Biomedical Engineering is a very entrepreneurial field. It is not uncommon to find a BME establishing or working for a startup company.
