Undergraduate Program - Electrical Engineering - Biomedical Option (outdated)

In addition to the Engineering Core (highlighted in blue), the Electrical Engineering Core (highlighted in yellow), Specialization courses and electives, the Biomedical Option requires completion of an additional 6.5 units of courses as follows (highlighted in purple):

  1. BIOL 225 - Principles of Cell Biology
  2. EPHE 141 - Introductory Human Anatomy
  3. ELEC 335 - Biosensors and Instrumentation
  4. PHYS 432 - Medical Physics
  5. Physics web course (0.5 unit) to provide necessary pre-requisite for PHYS 432


Note:

Students in this option must take BIOL 190A as their Science Elective and ELEC 435 as a Technical Elective.

Students must apply to be accepted into this option normally during Term 1B.

Admission to this option requires completion of Biology 11 and is subject to enrolment limitations.

This option is offered subject to resources.
