Biomedical engineering is a discipline that integrates engineering principles and the study of the life sciences and medicine. Students in biomedical engineering develop engineering strategies to effectively solve challenging problems in medicine and biology.
Biomedical Engineering at Texas A&M is one of the oldest new departments in the country. We have been a degree granting program since 1972, and our undergraduate program has been ABET accredited since 1977, however, we did not become a Department until 2002.
