Bioengineering

Program Overview

Offered by: Bioengineering (Faculty of Engineering) Degree: Bachelor of Engineering Program credit weight: 142-143 credits The B.Eng.; Major in Bioengineering will 1. provide students with the ability to apply systematic knowledge of biology, physical sciences and mathematics; and sound engineering foundations in order to solve problems of a biological nature; and 2. prepare students for the broad area of bioengineering, incorporating both biology-focused biological engineering and medicine-focused biomedical engineering. Students will acquire fundamental knowledge in bioengineering-related natural sciences and mathematics, as well as in the foundations of general engineering and bioengineering. Students will also acquire knowledge in one area of specialization of bioengineering: 1. biological materials and biomechanics; 2. biomolecular and cellular engineering; or 3. biological information and computation
