In the biomedical and chemical engineering Ph.D. program you will complete a number of classes in your first two years of study, including foundational courses with other engineering doctorate students, discipline-specific courses within biomedical and chemical engineering, and elective courses you select with your research advisor. You will complete a research thesis project with your faculty advisor in their lab and may have the opportunity to complete a complementary industrial co-op or internship. You will graduate from the program as a highly skilled researcher who is well positioned to be a leader in the next generation of engineers who will help tackle the challenging and complex problems facing our society. Current research areas include:

Biological Fluid Mechanics

Biomechanical Imaging

Intelligent Interaction Research (I2R)

Biological Microsystems

Microscale Bioseparations

NanoBio Materials

Tissue Regeneration & Mechanobiology
