First Class of Biological Engineering Students About to Graduate at MIT
Filed in archive News on June 5, 2008

When I was a student at MIT, there was no undergraduate major called biological engineering. This year, the first class of undergraduate students are about to graduate with a degree in Course 20 (MIT likes to use numbers to designate everything, including majors). The biological engineering program fuses molecular biology with engineering to create a new discipline that can be applied to medicine. The teaching faculty members come from other departments, including chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science. One of the restricted electives for the major is 3.052 Nanomechanics of Materials and Biomaterials. Want to know more about this graduating class? Read this MIT news release.
