The Department of Bioengineering is the newest department in Northeastern’s College of Engineering. Building on the success of its PhD program, BioE added BS and MS degree programs in the 2017 – 2018 academic year. We are now in an era of rapid growth with plans to double our faculty over the next three years and continue to increase as our student body expands.
Our research into the fundamentals of cell and tissue engineering, biomedical imaging and signal processing, biomechanics and biocomputing is providing a foundation on which a vibrant bioengineering community is developing—a community that spans the entire University. With over 80 affiliated faculty, the bioengineering department offers research opportunities that encompass the entire breadth of biological and biomedical engineering. Our co-op program is working with companies across the sector to provide BioE students with the broad range of opportunities within the Boston biotech industry and beyond.
