Discover BioengineeringThe world of bioengineering, also known as biomedical engineering, has expanded immensely and continues to grow at a rapid pace, creating new opportunities for engineers who have knowledge of biological sciences, chemistry and physical systems.Students in the program explore biomechanical, bioelectrical, biotransport and biomaterial topics. Within the bioengineering program there is a specialized pathway that supports pre-health and pre-medical students as they complete the requirements for admission to professional programs. Within a few years of graduation, graduates of the Bioengineering program are expected to be able to:Apply engineering solutions to biomedical, human health or biological challengesEngage in lifelong learning and pursue advanced level studiesDemonstrate ethical leadership, collaboration and communication skills in their professionollaboration that CountsStudents in the Department of Bioengineering benefit from cross-disciplinary collaboration during their undergraduate career, particularly with Pacific’s renowned health science programs in pharmacy, dentistry, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, audiology and physician assistant studies. Our students’ ability to explore courses in the medical disciplines will support their preparation for working within the medical arena.Earn While You LearnAll bioengineering students are encouraged to engage in professional development experiences outside the classroom. This could include a seven-month, paid CO-OP working in industry and earn an average of $3,700 a month. This professional experience allows students to explore potential career paths while also developing skills necessary to compete in the global job market after graduation.OutcomesUpon completion of their degree, graduates of bioengineering are equipped with the competency, adaptability and hands-on experience needed to enter the global workforce or a postgraduate program. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median pay for bioengineers was $97,410 per year in 2021.Bioengineering Program Educational ObjectivesWithin a few years of graduation, graduates of the Bioengineering program are expected to be able to:Apply engineering solutions to biomedical, human health or biological challengesEngage in lifelong learning and pursue advanced level studiesDemonstrate ethical leadership, collaboration and communication skills in their professionBioengineering Student OutcomesUpon graduation, graduates will have:an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematicsan ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factorsan ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiencesan ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contextsan ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectivesan ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusionsan ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies
