BME Specialty Sequence: Biomedical Systems and Control

Students entering Fall 2005 or later
Full description of each program

This specialty sequence is intended for students interested in those aspects of biomedical engineering that center around the systems and control technical discipline. Expertise in the systems and control area is, for example, central to the design of smart prosthetic devices, including cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators, and neuromuscular prostheses for hand, arm, and leg motion. Additionally, concepts from systems and control form the applied mathematical and computational basis for a number of areas in biomedical engineering, including biomedical imaging and signal processing applications, and the modeling and analysis of neural and brain activity, and muscle and cardiac electrophysiology and biomechanics. This sequence is therefore useful for graduate work in these areas. The courses in this sequence provide the fundamental knowledge necessary to the systems and control engineer. Furthermore, students can obtain the informational content of a minor in systems and control engineering.
