- Description
- This combined major from the College of Engineering and College of Science serves students who wish to develop both a scientific and an engineering mindset to solve problems in bioengineering and behavioral neuroscience. The program includes multidisciplinary fundamentals in bioengineering, developing a tool set to quantitatively model biological and engineered systems as well as design and implement devices, instruments, and implants with a focus on neurological systems. It also combines foundational topics in neuroscience with a rigorous background in life sciences, physical sciences, and mathematics, enabling students to connect the anatomy of the brain, neurons, and networks to the behavior in healthy and pathological states.
