Jointly offered with NC State, the Biomedical Engineering BS fuses engineering principles with medical science. Students design neural interfaces, drug-delivery nanocarriers, and bio-printed tissues in collaborative studio courses. Clinical immersion at UNC Health exposes teams to unmet medical needs, inspiring senior design solutions frequently commercialized through the department’s startup incubator.
