BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING SAEED TIARI, Ph.D., Program Director FACULTY: Professor: Davide Piovesan. Associate Professor: Saeed Tiari. Assistant Professor: Xiaoxu Ji. ADJUNCT FACULTY: Allen Madura, Nicholas Devine, Sheldon Bailey, Andrew Fair The Program The Biomedical Engineering (BME) program aims to provide students with fundamental engineering design and analysis skills to solve medical and biological problems. Biomedical Engineers work with health care professionals to design medical devices and equipment that enhance patients’ quality of life by applying engineering product and process design strategies to medical problems. The program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org. The BME Program offers 3 tracks in Biomechanics, Bioelectrics, and Biomaterials The BME Biomechanics track can be combined in a 4+1 years double degree program with • BS Mechanical Engineering • MS Biomedical Engineering • MS Mechanical Engineering • MBA Business Analytics (Ground) • MBA Business Administration (On-line) The BME Biomaterial track include a Pre-Health certificate and provide access to • LECOM 4+4 program
