Introduction
Please click here to see Bioengineering department information.
The undergraduate program at CU Denver is a highly rigorous program instilling competencies in biomedical science, engineering, and mathematics and biomedical design, while emphasizing the professional competencies of leadership, communication, presentation and critical problem solving. Our mission is to improve human health through the application of engineering principles, ideas, methods and inventions to solve important clinical problems. Bioengineering is a highly interdisciplinary field that brings together: (1) biological, chemical and physical sciences; (2) engineering and mathematics; and (3) clinical medicine. The undergraduate bioengineering program provides training at both the Denver campus and the Anschutz Medical Campus.
Graduates will be well prepared for further education in graduate school, medical school industry or other advanced professional preparation. The department also offers Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees in bioengineering.

- Students applying to the program must select bioengineering (pre-major) as their “Field of Study” in the online application. If you are admitted to the pre-major program you will enroll in pre-major courses, which are offered at the Denver campus. Students in the pre-major must apply to advance to major status in bioengineering. Admittance to the major in bioengineering will be granted to students who have successfully completed all pre-major courses and who meet the program’s selection criteria. Upper-division courses will be taught at the Anschutz Medical Campus.
