Bioengineering
Undergraduate Research Opportunities
Rhodes Research Center and Rhodes Annex offer 80,000 square feet of labs, teaching labs, classroom space, and offices.
Students may participate in numerous research opportunities, including projects in:
- bioinstrumentation
- biomaterials implant design
- biomedical optical imaging
- cardiovascular biomaterials
- computational modeling
- mechanobiology
- molecular therapies
- nanoscale drug delivery
- orthopedic mechanics
- tissue engineering
Students may enroll in research in two ways:
- Students may enroll in BioE 491, BioE 491H, or BioE 460 by emailing a professor whose work interests them and scheduling an appointment to discuss working in the professor's lab.
- Students may enroll in Bioe 451, Creative Inquiry, in which students work together with a professor to solve bioengineering problems during several semesters. Creative Inquiry is a University-wide initiative founded on the principle that engaging students in hands-on research mutually supports the goals of educator and student. Specific research-based undergraduate courses under this initiative span multiple semesters, allowing students and professors to work together on a thesis-driven project.
