Teaching

Courses

Overview of important areas of bioengineering with a particular focus on biomedical engineering. Orthopedic and soft tissue implants will be discussed with related areas of biomechanics. Function and repair of eyes, kidneys, hearts, and other organs will be covered. The course will also cover FDA regulation, ethics and the biomedical business.

In support of the biomechanics lecture course, this laboratory covers computational and experimental methods in biomechanics and biomaterials.
