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.
They must also take six additional engineering courses that cover topics such as electrical engineering, statistics, engineering computation and engineering materials. Biomedical engineering majors must complete a total of 130 credit hours at Syracuse, 131 credit hours at Georgia Tech and 136 credit hours at Boston University to receive a degree.
