Biomedical Engineering Lab
sponsored by Kaiser Permanente |

During the chemistry year, Biomedical Engineering students explore questions about genetically engineered foods, DNA, microbes, plant tissue culture and how these topics influence both the problems and potential solutions for our society. Students conduct projects on health issues related to industry and the environment. Bioengineering students study engineering and it’s application to health related professions. This lab is strongly recommended as a beneficial experience for future engineers, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, radiologists and many types of health technicians.
