Education Requirements for Biomedical Engineers: Biomedical engineers have at least a bachelor's degree in engineering from a university or four-year college. Ideally the degree would be in biomedical engineering, but some biomedical engineers studied mechanical, electrical, or some other related type of engineering.
A bachelor's degree in engineering is the basic requirement to work as a Biomedical Engineer, generally with a concentration in biomedical engineering or a related field. Coursework tends to be heavy in mathematics and physics. Advanced computer skills are also vital to the Engineer's education.
