Biomedical Engineering

Welcome to the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Tulane University in New Orleans, LA. Since 1977, our department has been a leader in engineering science investigations of health and medicine. As you explore this site, you will see that our curriculum and translational studies are targeted and integrated, spanning areas of biomaterials, biomechanics, device development and tissue engineering. Our team of faculty and staff members brings energy and enthusiasm towards educating future generations of biomedical engineers as we solve today's most complex and interesting basic and applied research problems relevant to healthcare. We welcome the opportunity to develop collaborations at all levels.

Tulane's Biomedical Engineering  program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET (www.abet.org).

If you’re working toward a bachelor’s degree, your first stop is our admission office. Last year, more than 150 international students pursued undergraduate degrees at Tulane. Let our counselors help you with entry requirements, academics, living in New Orleans, tuition, and more. (Don’t rule us out based on cost: We offer up to $23,000 in need-based financial aid to international students who qualify and who have not already been awarded that amount or more in merit scholarships.)

The 2023 freshman application is open.
We accept both the Common Application and our own online application.
