Overview

The Biomedical Engineering program at the University of Central Florida is a great opportunity for those interested in surgical and cancer treatment planning, engineering-based simulation in cardiovascular disease and treatment, development of devices for improved and novel diagnosis, image guided surgery and surgical robotics, and development of assistive and rehabilitative technology.

Choose from three different tracks available, each providing you with an understanding of relevant physiology and biology, knowledge of contemporary topics in medical technology, training in the modern biomedical engineering tools, and the ability to engage in advanced engineering studies including elements of research, analysis, design and experimentation.

Tracks

Biomedical Engineering (MS) – Accelerated BS to MSBMEThis track allows highly qualified undergraduate majors in mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering to begin taking graduate-level courses that will count toward their master’s degree while completing their baccalaureate degree program. As a full-time student, you’ll receive a bachelor’s and master’s degree in five years instead of six years.

Biomedical Engineering (MS) – BiofluidsCurrent research focuses on translational research in multiscale computational fluid dynamics for cardiovascular treatment planning, lung cancer treatment planning, upper airways fluid mechanics, bioacoustics for patient monitoring and bedside diagnosis.

Biomedical Engineering (MS) – BiomechanicsWithin this track, current research focuses on biomechanics, developmental dysplasia of the hip, cellular mechanics and force-induced biochemical responses, image guided surgery, surgical robotics navigation and tracking, soft robotics, and biomechanics of movement rehabilitation and neural control of movement.

Biomedical Engineering (MS) – MD/MSBME

This track allows you to earn an M.D. and the M.S.BME simultaneously. It runs as a five-year program where you’ll complete the majority of the M.S.BME requirements in the third year after matriculation, prior to your clinical experiences. This track is aimed at M.D. students who wish to expand their College of Medicine FIRE project into a thesis. Please note that the nonthesis option is not available on this track.

Career

Graduates of the biomedical engineering program have a command of the application of engineering principles to biological and health systems. You’ll be instilled with the professional skills necessary to gain employment in the biomedical engineering industry or to enter competitive biomedical engineering doctoral programs. Career opportunities include research, design, analysis, testing and product development in the biomedical and rehabilitation industries, clinical engineering, and biomedical engineering.
