The program educations in the application of <br />the principles of engineering, biology, human physiology, math <br />and sciences to solve biomedical engineering problems, Including <br />those related to the interaction between living and non -living <br />systems. The educational program objectives are as follows: <br />1. Establish and develop a career in engineering or <br />technologist related professions that involve the <br />design, development, implementation or Improvement <br />of biomedical systems. <br />2. Collaborate with others and efficiently function as <br />members or leaders of engineering or multidisciplinary <br />teams. <br />3. Continue to develop skills In engineering, business, <br />management or other biomedical engineering related <br />fields. <br />4. Effectively adapt to the changing demands in the <br />workplace and perform Increasingly complex tasks, <br />including tasks outside a field of expertise. <br />STUDENT OUTCOMES <br />The student outcomes of the Bachelor of Science Biomedical <br />Engineering are for its graduates to attain the following: <br />1. an ability to Identify, formulate, and solve complex <br />engineering problems by applying principles of <br />engineering, science, and mathematics <br />2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce <br />solutions that meet specified needs with consideration <br />of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, <br />cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors <br />3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of <br />audiences <br />4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional <br />responsibilities in engineering situations and make <br />informed judgments, which must consider the impact <br />of engineering solutions In global, economic, <br />environmental, and societal contexts <br />5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose <br />members together provide leadership, create a <br />collaborative and inclusive environment, establish <br />goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives <br />6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate <br />experimentation, analyze and Interpret data, and use <br />engineering judgment to draw conclusions <br />7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as <br />needed, using appropriate learning strategies. <br />MODE OF PROGRAM DELIVERY <br />This program Is delivered in either a blended or a distance <br />learning modality. Students decide which modality to complete <br />the program at the time of enrollment contingent on program <br />availability. When delivered in a blended modality, some courses <br />are delivered residentially at the campus whereas other courses <br />are delivered online only. When delivered In a distance learning <br />modality, all courses are delivered online. Courses delivered <br />residentially at the campus may have an asynchronous didactic <br />learning component integrated into the curriculum (Le, online <br />materials to support the courses residential delivery). Courses <br />delivered online utilize both asynchronous and synchronous <br />methods. The school reserves the right to change the mode of <br />delivery for any course if necessary, Including the extent to which <br />asynchronous and synchronous Instructional methods are utilized <br />for delivery through distance learning. The program objectives <br />and outcomes remain the same regardless of the mode of <br />program delivery. <br />0*NET SOC OCCUPATIONS <br />0*NET is a taxonomy of hundreds of occupations and an online <br />resource for occupational information. It Is being developed <br />under the sponsorship of the US Department of Labor.
