Bioelectronics Major
The Bioelectronics track includes rigorous education in electrical engineering within the interdisciplinary framework of the curriculum. This includes one full year of courses in electric circuits and one semester each of analog electronics and digital electronics. This curriculum supports interests focused on the measurement of bioelectric signals and biomedical instrumentation design. In the senior year the curriculum features intensive biomedical instrument design and computer laboratories emphasizing modern bioelectric applications. In addition, the senior year capstone design course places the student on a multidisciplinary design team in order to solve an actual industrial design problem.

*The three core electives must satisfy the University Core Requirements in the following four Knowledge Areas: Diverse Cultures (DC), Histories of Cultures and Societies (HCS), Individual and Social Behavior (ISB), and Literature/Performing Arts (LPA). Therefore, one of the three must be a "dual application" core course as described in the section on University Core of Common Studies. See this section for lists of acceptable courses.
