What is the undergraduate BME program like at Carnegie Mellon?
The BME Department collaborates closely with traditional engineering departments, including Chemical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Materials Science & Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering, in developing its undergraduate curriculum. BME is offered as an additional major B.S. degree in combination with any of these fields. The B.S. program leverages elective slots in the traditional engineering majors so that it can be completed with a modest increase in the total number of course units required to graduate. While the policy of additional major may evolve, the close collaboration with traditional engineering departments will remain a major feature of this Department.
