Chair's Welcome
Welcome to the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Toledo. The UT College
of Engineering has a long tradition of academic excellence and our department is a
major contributor to this tradition. The College of Engineering offers award winning
faculty and staff, state-of-the-art laboratories, and an integrated undergraduate
co-operative employment experience, among others.The Department of Bioengineering strives to offer the most student-centered undergraduate
and graduate Bioengineering programs in the country. Our faculty are fully engaged
with the students and we are currently implementing a new peer mentoring program for
our first year undergraduates. Our web site also details all of the academic programs
we offer, including our Bacc2MD Pathway program which guarantees an early interview
with the UT College of Medicine for selected Bioengineering undergraduates. The Department
of Bioengineering is also a leading participant in the new Ph.D. Program in Biomedical
Engineering between the Colleges of Engineering and Medicine.
Our department is home to some of the best research programs in selected areas, such
as the biomechanics of the spine, energy production from biomass, and the development
of chemical and biological sensors. In the area of spine research, the department
now has two endowed professorships. We are continuing to hire new faculty in these
research areas and the department's research profile is expected to grow.
Please feel free to contact me if you have further questions about our programs.
