With technology playing an increasingly large role in today’s healthcare industry, the world faces a demand for engineers who can understand, model, and design complex health systems.
Canada’s largest engineering school offers interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate programs in biomedical engineering (BME). The undergraduate program is housed within the Department of Systems Design Engineering. The graduate program is a partnership between three Faculty of Engineering departments: Systems Design Engineering, Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering, and Electrical and Computer Engineering.
