Undergraduate and graduate programs

This is the information regarding graduate and undergraduates courses provided by UC SAN DIEGO, DEPARTMENT OF BIOENGINEERING.
UNDERGRADUATES:
Overview on the undergraduate educational programs of the UCSD Department of Bioengineering. Since 1967, UCSD has offered an undergraduate major in Bioengineering. Over the past forty years, UCSD Bioengineering has established a reputation of innovation and excellence in education.
Bioengineering is an interdisciplinary field in which the principles and tools of mechanical, materials, electrical, and chemical engineering are applied to biomedical and biological problems. Bioengineering plays an important role in medicine in projects that range from basic research in physiology to advances in biotechnology and the improvement of health care delivery. By its very nature, bioengineering is broad and requires a foundation in engineering and mathematics as well as in the physical, chemical, and biological sciences.
The UCSD Department of Bioengineering has an educational Mission and targeted Outcomes for its undergraduate major programs. Four undergraduate majors are offered:
Bioengineering
Bioengineering: Biotechnology
Bioengineering: Bioinformatics
Bioengineering: Premedical

GRADUATE:
The UC San Diego Bioengineering Graduate Program continues to build on its well-established tradition of interdisciplinary scholarship, while promoting new areas of graduate research and education, by developing a program based on Integrative Bioengineering. This includes the integration of research activities at all levels of biomedical engineering design from genes and molecules to the whole organism, interaction between engineering and biomedical sciences, coordination of research and education, partnerships between neighboring institutions, and collaboration with industry and clinical medicine for effective technology transfer
