Design is an important part of the engineering profession. The biomedical engineering curriculum provides for the development of design skills through courses taught, culminating in a two-semester senior design course that requires the application of a wide range of engineering technology focused in a design project.
The Department offers an opportunity for graduate students to participate in ground-breaking research in Sensing and Imaging, Optics, Biomechanics, and Biomaterials. Our outstanding faculty have strong collaborations with both medical and veterinary schools, as well as various other departments throughout the university and around the world.
We invite you to tour our redesigned website, especially the Former Students section, where we have added several new pages and features to help you stay connected with your alma mater. One of the easiest ways to stay connected to the department is through the Alumni Listserv.
The three-day symposium, which is sponsored by the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Texas Engineering Experiment Station (TEES), and SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, will be held at the Annenberg Presidential Conference Center at the George Bush Presidential Library. The program will highlight new trends and progress made in biomedical optical technologies and applications in diagnostics and therapeutics
The student chapter of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) recently announced the Faculty and Staff of the Year Awards. Recognized during the annual Picnic with the Profs May 2, BMES officers honored Dr. Kenith Meissner with the faculty award and Andy Deuel as the staff award recipient.
The National Science Foundation has announced its Graduate Research Fellowship recipients for 2012. Several current students and one
former student of the department of biomedical engineering at Texas A&M
University have received fellows that will allow them to pursue their studies
in the biomedical field. New Fellows include Cory Olsovsky, first-year doctoral
student working in Professor Kristen Maitland’s lab, Jennifer Holm, second-year
doctoral student and research assistant in Professor Elizabeth Cosgriff-Hernández’lab and biomedical engineering undergraduate students Oscar Carrasco-Zevallos, research assistant in Professor Brian Applegate's lab and Giuliana Salazar-Noratto, a research assistant in Professor Roland Kaunas' lab.
