Return to: Areas of Study by Type
Biomedical engineering is a broad, interdisciplinary field in which engineering principles are integrated with the study of biology. At Widener, faculty members are pursuing research in a wide range of topics within biomedical engineering, such as cardiovascular mechanics, kidney dialysis, tissue engineering, and biomechanics.
Students enrolling in the biomedical engineering minor can expect to gain:
- An understanding of basic physiology and the application of engineering principles to biomedical problems.
- Practical application of their engineering skills to a bioengineering problem through the senior project.
- An appropriate background to enter the workforce as a traditional engineer (e.g., mechanical or electrical engineer) in a biomedical engineering setting or to excel in a bioengineering or biomedical engineering graduate program.
Interested students should contact the biomedical engineering department chair early in their sophomore year.
