Building Relationships with Employers
The Case Biomedical Engineering Program has developed a strong connection with employers.
These efforts include the development of a BME Student Employment Program. This program
allows employers to specifically target BME students (graduate and undergraduate) for all
their hiring needs. Our department works directly with employers to match students with
employers. We assist employers in filling full-time, part-time, co-op, or internship
opportunities within their organization.
(View 2002 placement information).
Our department also works with employers to make connections in
the area of sponsored research and collaborations. Our Director of Employer Relations
can work with employers to make connections with departmental faculty or schedule campus
visits. Additionally, we also offer a multitude of research equipment available for use
in our various laboratories. External collaborators are encouraged to
contact department faculty and staff
to employ these research resources within new research collaborations.
With a large number of our graduates choosing careers in industry,
the Case Biomedical Engineering Department has sought was to strengthen the preparedness
of our students for industrial jobs. New courses with an industrial focus, increased
experiential learning opportunities, and curricular input from industrial experts are
some of the ways we are accomplishing this goal. |
