Bioengineering Program

  • Program Overview

    Where engineering and biology intersect, exciting discoveries in the medical and life sciences are taking place.

    At its heart, the bioengineering program is highly interdisciplinary, encompassing foundational coursework in biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and computer science. As a bioengineering major at Endicott, you will apply this knowledge in upper division engineering courses focused on team-based design and analysis. With your well-rounded liberal arts education here, you will be able to relate subject matter in your major to other disciplines, and you will develop important skills in communication, critical thinking, and problem solving.

    The bioengineering program prepares you for a wide variety of careers involved in advancing health and medicine, as well as graduate programs in engineering or health professions such as medical, dental, or veterinary school. The program has been designed with ABET accreditation in mind and is anticipated within the next few years.

    Program Highlights

    • Outstanding job opportunities - students are equipped to solve challenging problems in the medical and life sciences across a broad spectrum of sub-disciplines.
    • Application and design experience from day one - starting the first semester of freshman year and culminating in senior design, students build and design projects in teams to apply their basic knowledge of science and mathematics.
    • Strong bioengineering foundation - courses in Bioinformatics, Biomaterials, Tissue Engineering, Engineering Physiology, Transport Phenomena, and others provides broad bioengineering foundation
    • Ginger Judge Science Center - teaching/research labs, computer labs, and specialized facilities that include a tissue culture room, fluorescent microscopes, high content imaging system, chemical instrumentation, industrial-strength mechanical strength testers, makerspace with 3D printers, 3D scanners, microcontrollers, iRobot Creates, and NAO humanoid robots.
    • Opportunity to specialize in other areas - greatly increased list of elective courses for major allows for further focus in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Engineering, or Mathematics.
    • Incubator space - room for startup companies (including student and faculty initiatives) which provides internship opportunities.
    • Amazing guest lecturers - Dr. Robert Langer (David H. Koch Institute Professor, MIT), Dr. David Mooney (Robert P. Pinkas Family Professor of Bioengineering, Harvard), Sir Richard Roberts (New England BioLabs and 1993 Nobel Laureate in Physiology and Medicine), Dr. Joyce Wong (Professor, Boston University).
