The Biomedical Program at Vanderbilt University
prepares students to apply engineering concepts to
scientific and practical problems in bio-logy, medicine, and
health care. Please read our
Mission/ Objectives and
Outcomes pages.
Admissions information is available
here.
The
undergraduate curriculum can serve as a
pre-medical program, as preparation for graduate school and
as preparation for careers in biomedical engineering and
related health fields. Double-major programs with electrical
engineering and with chemical engineering are available.
This program is accredited by the Accreditation Board for
Engineering and Technology, and students receive the
Bachelor of Engineering degree. There are several
opportunities for summer research or internships available
through the department also. (Username = vanderbilt\VUnetID,

The
graduate program prepares students for research
and advanced practice in biomedical engineering. The
department offers courses of study leading to the M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees. The department collaborates with the School
of Medicine in the M.D./Ph.D. program (Medical Scientist
Training Program). Vanderbilt University administers a
training grant from the National Institutes of Health that
provides financial support for pre-doctoral students in
medical imaging (Dr. Gore).
