Please email the undergraduate coordinator for an appointment.

The undergraduate coordinator supports all parts of a student’s academic journey, including promotion rules, improving study skills, exploring options, supplemental exams and selecting courses like Complementary Studies Electives (CSEs).

Academic Information

Accreditation

The Biomedical Engineering program is accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB). CEAB seeks to assure that graduates of the program meet the academic requirements for professional licensure and that they possess twelve attributes that set graduates up for success in their careers as engineers. In the Faculty of Engineering, we assess students based on a set of program indicators throughout the courses in the chemical engineering curriculum.

Supplementary Examination and Promotion Rules

Your term standing is available on QUEST shortly after the end of the term. Definitions of academic decisions and promotion rules are outlined in the Examinations and Promotions section of the Undergraduate Studies Academic Calendar. If you have any questions regarding your term standing, contact the BME Undergraduate Office.

Capstone Design

During your final year, you will complete a Biomedical Engineering Capstone Design project. During two consecutive courses, students work in teams on a real, open-ended engineering design problem under the supervision of a faculty member with expertise in that problem area.
