Welcome to the Department of Biomedical Engineering home page! Biomedical Engineering
combines biology and medicine with engineering to advance healthcare through the creation
of innovative devices and procedures. Biomedical engineers collaborate with scientists,
other engineers, and practicing physicians on projects such as orthopedic implants,
artificial organs, cardiovascular prostheses, and improved medical imaging techniques.
We offer the only undergraduate biomedical engineering degree within 200 miles. Our
graduate program is a collaboration of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, the University
of Memphis, and their partnering entities.
