BIOLOGY MINOR (Not intended for QBE Students)
The biology minor is designed for students outside of the Quantitative Biosciences and Engineering (QBE) major who would like to complement their degree specific learning with knowledge of fundamental biology concepts, as well as modern technical applications of biological knowledge. Our understanding of biology is growing exponentially, allowing us to begin engineering biological systems to improve the environment and human health. This minor is open to students from any program outside of QBE and is specifically valuable to students interested in the interdisciplinary applications of their degree with biological systems to address issues impacting earth, energy and the environment.
BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING MINOR
The Biomedical Engineering minor at offers students a focused exploration of the intersection between engineering and medicine. Through coursework in areas such as biomechanics, bioinstrumentation, and tissue engineering, students gain practical skills and theoretical knowledge. Hands-on experiences and research opportunities prepare graduates for careers in biomedical device design, healthcare innovation, and medical research, empowering them to address real-world healthcare challenges effectively.
BIOMECHANICAL Engineering MINOR
Biomechanical Engineering minor offers students a dynamic educational experience that prepares them to tackle complex challenges at the interface of engineering and biology. Whether pursuing further studies or entering the workforce, graduates are equipped to make meaningful contributions to the field of biomechanics.
Data science minor
The Data Science minor equips students with essential skills in analyzing and interpreting complex datasets. Through coursework covering statistics, machine learning, and data visualization, students gain hands-on experience with tools like Python and R. With emphasis on practical applications and opportunities for internships, graduates are prepared for careers in data analysis and predictive modeling, contributing to data-driven decision-making across industries.
