Overview

Key facts

In the first two years of the Bioengineering program from University of Maryland, students take engineering foundation courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and math. In the third and fourth years, the focus shifts to the areas of career-specific areas, including biotechnology, biomechanics, biomaterials, and biomedical instrumentation. Capstone I and II is a two-semester fall/spring sequence taken in the fourth year that provides an immersion experience in entrepreneurialism, innovation, and the engineering practice.

Biomedical engineering is steadily becoming the world's largest industrial sector and, as a result, there is an increasing demand for doctors who are technically competent and for engineers who are properly trained in basic medical science. At the undergraduate level, the Fischell Department of Bioengineering offers a degree program accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET

Accreditation

The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) is the professional society for aerospace engineering. Here at the University of Maryland, AIAA has one of the largest and most active student branches on the east coast.
