BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

Small seminars, faculty mentoring, and hands-on learning are all part of an innovative new program of study at Case and will be the foundational academic experience for all Case undergraduates beginning in Fall 2005. Learn more about SAGES.

Research universities like Case have tremendous resources available for students.  The faculty and facilities of a research university are truly awesome in all academic departments - from science and engineering to the humanities, health sciences, management, performing arts, and others. But for an undergraduate student to make the most of these resources, you must first learn how to interact and engage with this exciting environment. That's where SAGES comes in.

SAGES features small seminars (less than 20 students) led by a faculty member and taught in a dynamic seminar-style instruction. Students interact with students from different perspectives and viewpoints, as well as learn to develop and hone their ability to speak and to persuade and to listen to, and be open to, differing perspectives. In the university seminars, students also participate in Biomedical Engineering Departmental seminars that focus on technical writing and topics in the field of biomedical engineering. Biomedical Engineering students will also have the opportunity to get to form closer relations with BME faculty because of the small class size.
