I am not a student. Could you give a special seminar at my company?
Yes! Please contact the instructor about special on-site seminars at your company for your employees.
Group: BME 459
I am a BME MS student in the CMTI program. Is this course valuable for me?
Biomedical engineers often develop tools that interact with human anatomical structures. They also develop tools that image anatomical structures. Having a solid foundational knowledge of anatomy is of considerable importance to individuals looking to enter the medical device industry.
What real world practical skill will I acquire in this course?
You will develop the ability to evaluate and analyze medical devices and health problems in the context of human anatomy.
How does this class differ from BME 258?
A graduate student may take BME 258. However, as a graduate student you will only receive 3 credits for taking it. BME 459 differs from BME 258 in that it has additional practical material that relates medical technology to anatomical structure and function.
I am an undergraduate student. Can I take this course?
Undergraduates can take the course but only with instructor approval.
I am a graduate student in a program located on the medical school campus. Can I take this course?
Yes. Any graduate student can take this course as long as you have had at least an introductory Biology course.
Do I also have to register for BME 258 or BIO 258?
NO. Please only register for the lecture, lab, and small group case study discussions associated with BME 459.
Do I have to be an engineer in order to take this course?
Absolutely not! While this course discusses medical technologies and how they relate to the underlying anatomy, the material is appropriate for students of any discipline.
