The BME Department

Biomedical engineering is at the forefront of the medical revolution – and WPI has been a leader in the field since 1962. Biomedical engineers utilize engineering methodologies and impressive technology to study the wonder of living organisms in an advanced and quantitative way and develop new technologies to improve healthcare. This integration of engineering and biology offers new and exciting insight into our bodies and cells not previously possible. At WPI, the Dept. of Biomedical Engineering offers students the opportunity to specialize in:

Biomaterials, Biomechanics, Biomedical Imaging, Biosensors and Bioinstrumentation and Tissue Engineering. Read more about BME...
