Our Mission

The USF Department of Medical Engineering seeks to advance excellence in biomedical engineering and improve patient care by conducting innovative research, developing impactful technologies, and training students for success as multidisciplinary global leaders. 

Program educational Objectives

The Department of Medical Engineering undergraduate program will prepare students to:

1. Develop into successful and ethical biomedical engineers, healthcare professionals, or other related practitioners.
2. Pursue lifelong learning to expand technical skills and professional knowledge through academic, industrial, and research training.
3. Use experiences and skills acquired through their biomedical engineering education to improve the local, national, and global healthcare communities.

ABET Learning Outcomes

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
8. An ability to write complex programming code in at least one language to solve comp

Why Medical Engineering at USF?

Biomedical engineers have and apply knowledge of both engineering tools and medical biology.

Biomedical engineers bridge the medical and engineering disciplines providing an overall enhancement of health care. Biomedical engineers design and build innovative devices (artificial limbs and organs, new-generation imaging machines, advanced prosthetics, and more) and apply quantitative computational methods towards the understanding of biological systems and disease processes.

The USF College of Engineering and the Morsani College of Medicine partnered to advance the growing field of biomedical engineering by jointly creating a new Department of Medical Engineering.

Our mission is to provide:

• A new multidisciplinary, state-of-the-art environment for training the next generation of scientists, clinicians and engineers
• Interdisciplinary research programs targeted at new and emerging fields in medicine and engineering
• Translational research leading to medical innovations and novel therapies
• Increased competitiveness for 'team science' programmatic funding, research center grants, licensing and royalties, and philanthropy
• Enhanced patient care and health care delivery: "better care at lower costs."

The Medical Engineering Department has an undergraduate program to produce a skilled workforce educated by engineers, scientists and physicians who reinforce theory with practice.

Our graduates will contribute to the growing Tampa Bay biotechnology hub and compliments our already successful graduate programs (MS and PhD).

The 麻豆视频 is one of only three top-tier public universities in the state of Florida, categorized as having Preeminent Research Status based on its rapidly growing external research portfolio, Research 1 ranking, and its business incubator campus which houses the Florida Inventors Hall of Fame.

No other public university has risen faster in national rankings over the past 10 years than USF, which is a top 50 research university among both public and private institutions according to the National Science Foundation, with an annual budget of $1.5B and economic impact of $4.4B in the Tampa Bay Region.

USF has earned widespread national recognition for its success graduating under-represented minority and limited-income students at rates equal to or higher than white and higher income students.
