Learning to Engineer Better Health: BME Curricula

 

  EBME 105 Lecture
  

The Case Biomedical Engineering Program is one of the premier BME Programs in the country. Established in 1968 with over 1600 alumni, Case BME continues to be a top ranked program, serve as a model for innovative education, and be an international leader in research.

Our mission is to promote human health through education and research that bridges the gap between medicine and engineering. We have established successful and comprehensive programs in research and education. Our educational program is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).

At the cornerstone of our success has been active collaboration, which is embodied by intensive interactions between students and faculty in classrooms and research laboratories. Collaborations are also greatly facilitated by our prime location adjacent to outstanding research and clinical resources at the School of Medicine , the University Hospitals of Cleveland , the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, and the VA Medical Center, as well as close proximity to the MetroHealth Medical Center . The Biomedical Engineering faculty carry dual appointments in the Case School of Engineering and the School of Medicine ; active participation in both schools provides a collaborative environment to establish many research centers to translate biomedical engineering research from bench to bedside.

Our department continues to evolve to match the recent accelerated pace of biomedical engineering developments. Our cutting-edge research programs span a wide range of new interdisciplinary engineering discoveries and biomedical applications.

Our research and education programs are strongly integrated with industry through our strong industrial relationships. Industrial opportunities include, job opportunities, sponsored research, and industrial training are key components in our employer relations efforts.

The department hosts visiting scholars, who are leaders in their respective research areas, to present seminars and lectures within our department.
