Welcome to the Department of the biomedical engineering, Marshall University. Biomedical engineers study and perform research on the engineering aspects of bio-systems to create new procedures, technologies, and devices to improve health and quality of life. The primary goal of our undergraduate Biomedical Engineering (BSBME) program is to prepare graduates to succeed in professional careers by providing them with the technical and analytical skills sought after by major employers and prominent medical and graduate schools seeking specialized skills in biomedical engineering. Our program allows undergraduate students to specialize in biomechanics, biomaterials and tissue engineering, or instrumentation, signals and imaging. The purpose of our new PhD program in engineering is to produce graduates who can think independently and develop creative and innovative engineering solutions to life science problems of interest to mankind for improved quality of life. PhD students are encouraged to focus on their discoveries through the lenses of engineering principles at the interface of biology and medicine.
