What do Biomedical Engineering majors do?

Biomedical engineers are innovative and practical problem solvers who work well on interdisciplinary teams, often with partners in the medical and rehabilitation communities. They are dogged researchers, familiar with the relevant medical literature in their area of study, and strong designers who bring their own ideas to the table. They combine the passion to alleviate suffering and improve peoples’ daily lives with the discipline to put those ideas to the test in well-designed experiments. They are active listeners and creative thinkers who like to solve problems in medical environments.
