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.
Those looking to go into biomedical engineering need to have at least a bachelor's degree from a biomedical engineering program. Alternatively, these professionals can earn an undergraduate degree in a different type of engineering and either complete a graduate degree in biomedical engineering or receive on-the-job training in biomedical engineering.
