BIO E H4150/6150 - Research Principles (1)
BIO E H4910 - Mentoring Research in Bioengineering (1-4) for a total of 6 credit hours
The Departmental Honors program in Bioengineering provides exceptional student training and practical experience in the conduct of experimental research under the supervision of a faculty adviser. BioE H4150 offers academic training in research planning, ethical conduct, professional documentation and dissemination in both oral and written formats. Students are strongly encouraged to co-enroll in BioE H4150 (6150 if pursuing a B.S./M.S. degree) during their first semester of BioE H4910.
In Bio E H4910, students will review relevant, peer-reviewed literature, conduct a mentored research project and present their findings in a poster or oral presentation (final semester) during the department’s research day near the end of each semester. During their final semester of BioE H4910, students must prepare a senior thesis including the background, methods, results and conclusions of the research project that the faculty adviser and the department Honors Committee must approve. Six credits of BioE H4910 may be used to satisfy the BioE Technical Requirements within the bioengineering curriculum.
