Biomedical Engineering

About the Biomedical Engineering major

As a Union College biomedical engineering major, you’ll engage in a hands-on, interdisciplinary program connecting engineering and life sciences. You'll apply engineering principles to study biological systems and understand how devices and materials serve biomedical applications.

Through a unique summer program, you may work at Albany Medical College, shadowing doctors to observe clinical challenges firsthand. Back on campus, you’ll design solutions in a two-term senior capstone course.
