Tracks
Biomaterials
The Biomaterials track involves the study of the interaction of
biomaterials with their environment in the context of biomedical
applications. Students will be encouraged to focus their studies on
one of several bio-medically relevant topics, including tissue
engineering, biological delivery, or the interaction of biomaterials
with mammalian tissues. The nature of this track will require
students to select courses from a number of departments.
Track requirements
In addition to the
12 core SHU requirements,
students in this track must also take:
- BME 153 Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine (3 SHUs)
- BME 165 Principles of Controlled Release and Drug Delivery
(3 SHUs)
- 4 Elective courses
