BS in Biomedical Engineering(Cell and Tissue Engineering)-STEM, Illinois Institute of Technology

This Biomedical Engineering degree focuses on understanding and addressing biomedical problems at the microscopic level, particularly through the lens of cellular and tissue engineering. Students learn how to engineer replacement tissues and organs from individual cells, combining knowledge of anatomy, biochemistry, and cellular mechanics to understand disease processes and target interventions. The program emphasizes developing technologies such as miniature devices for targeted cellular treatments, tissue replacements like skin and heart valves, and biomaterials that integrate living cells and proteins for better biological and mechanical compatibility.
