Biomedical engineers develop medical technologies in areas such as biomaterials, biosensors, wearable devices and imaging systems to improve people's lives. The Biomedical Engineering Bachelor of Science is geared to students looking to combine strong engineering skills and knowledge of biological sciences. Individualized degree plans are organized around three main areas of study: biomaterials to support or replace damaged tissue, biomechanics for supporting anatomical movement, and biosensors and microtechnologies to improve disease detection and management. Most Biomedical Engineering majors do high-profile research with faculty and complete sponsored senior design projects, which help launch their careers or entry into medical or graduate school. The B.S. in Biomedical Engineering is an approved pre-med program.

Learning Outcomes

• Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering
• Ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data
• Applying principles of engineering, biology, human physiology, chemistry, calculus based physics, mathematics (through Differential Equations) and statistics

Engage in meaningful study about human life, from our hominid origins millions of years ago to the wide-ranging spectrum of populations in the world today. Anthropology is the study of all aspects of human existence. Students in this Bachelor of Arts program learn to ask questions about essential components of the human experience, such as language, cultural development, environment and biology. Guided by respected anthropologists, students hone their ability to describe, interpret and predict human behavior, a skill applicable to industries as far-reaching as journalism and technology. The coursework relies on an integrated approach that focuses on four subdisciplines: cultural, linguistic and biological anthropologies, plus archaeology. The School of Anthropology is ranked among the top five programs in the country.

Food systems is the study of the food supply chain, which includes production, processing, distribution, and consumption as well as waste. Drivers of the food system include culture, economics, policy, and marketing, and the collective impact on outcomes including human and environmental health, food insecurity, and community food security. The Nutrition and Food Systems degree is an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the complexities of the food system from production to consumption and impact on human health, as well as challenges faced by the food system to develop sustainable solutions for producing, processing, delivering, and consuming safe, culturally desirable, nutritious, and economically and environmentally sustainable food. The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is committed to training emerging leaders who will address grand challenges facing humanity, including management and preservation of precious and finite natural resources, and finding solutions to feed over 9 billion people by 2050.

Learning Outcomes

• Effectively communicate diet and nutrition information/knowledge to diverse populations
• Apply scientific evidence, best practices, and professional judgment when evaluating food- and nutrition-related problems
• Identify alterations in nutrition metabolism and its implications on health and disease
• Utilize food science and culinary principles in food preparation to recognize how knowledge of food can influence nutritional status.
• Explore the relationship between drivers of the food system and the food supply chain as they affect food consumption, food waste, the environment and human health.
