UCSD Bioengineering Mission The overall mission of the Department of Bioengineering is to improve
health and quality of life by applying engineering principles to scientific discovery and technology innovation and to train future leaders in
Bioengineering through inspiring education and dedicated mentorship.
Educational ObjectivesThe educational objectives of the Bioengineering program at UCSD are to produce graduates with a modern bioengineering education who will:
apply the central areas of bioengineering, its underlying sciences, and related technologies in a broad range of careers
use strong communication, learning, and teamwork skills to facilitate bioengineering practice and continued professional advancement
act professionally, ethically, and socially responsible

Four Major OptionsCAREER OPTIONS
Bioengineering (BENG)*
Bioengineering: Industry,Biotechnology (BTEC)* MEng, MSc, PhD
Bioengineering:Bioinformatics (BINF)*
Bioengineering: MD, DDS, PharmD,Premedical (PMED)* Vet, Industry
NOTE: THE BIOENGINEERING: PREMEDICAL MAJOR WILL BE DISCONTINUED.
FRESHMEN ADMITTED FALL 2009 INTO THE “PRE-BIOENGINEERING: PREMEDICAL” STATUS WILL BE THE LAST CLASS OF STUDENTS TO ATTEMPT SATISFACTION OF THE REQUIRED SCREENING COURSES AND GPA FOR POSSIBLE TRANSITION INTO AND COMPLETION OF THE BIOENGINEERING: PREMEDICAL MAJOR.
* accredited by EAC/ABET* not accredited by EAC/ABET
27
Discontinuation of the Bioengineering: Premedical Major
• The Department of Bioengineering announces that it will discontinue and phase out the Bioengineering: Premedical major. Starting in Fall 2010, the
• Pre-Bioengineering: Premedical status and the Bioengineering: Premedical major will no longer be available to entering freshman and transfer students, although all required courses will continue to be offered until students who have entered the major with the 2009 class have graduated. In parallel, modifications are being made in the Bioengineering, Bioengineering: Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Bioinformatics tracks to enhance preparation of graduates who plan to pursue careers in the medical professions, as well as in traditional bioengineering careers.
• These changes are being made in response to new directions in the biomedical engineering profession and to permit development of new educational initiatives that will better address the needs of graduates. More information may be obtained at www-bioeng.ucsd.edu or from the Bioengineering Student Affairs Office located in Bioengineering Hall, rm 141.
