Total: 20-21 hours

Notes:

*Chemical engineering majors must complete all three groups (ten hours) of the biology core courses and six hours of biomedical engineering specialization electives.

**Biological science majors must complete BIOL 2153 , BIOL 2173 , and either BIOL 2151  or BIOL 2171  to fulfill the biology core requirement.

***CS 2123  may be counted toward the minor in biomedical engineering or toward the student’s major, but not both.

****All students must complete at least six hours of engineering coursework (beyond the required biomedical engineering foundation courses) from the list above. Courses which meet this designation are those offered by the following ABET-accredited programs: chemical engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and engineering physics.

Interested students should consult their major faculty advisor for additional discipline-related details.
