Biomedical Engineering
Major, Minor
DEPARTMENT: ELECTRICAL, COMPUTER AND BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING
As a Union College biomedical engineering major, you'll engage in a hands-on, interdisciplinary program connecting engineering and life sciences. You'll apply engineering principles to study biological systems and understand how devices and materials serve biomedical applications.
Through a unique summer program, you may work at Albany Medical College, shadowing doctors to observe clinical challenges firsthand. Back on campus, you’ll design solutions in a two-term senior capstone course.
Biomechanical engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.
