Aerospace and mechanical engineering are often a common toss up for students because these majors are so similar. The classes you take for both these disciplines are ext

remely similar.

As an aerospace...

Materials engineering (or materials science and engineering) is about the design, testing, processing, and discovery of new materials. Materials engineers will cover the 4 main classes of materials...

How did I find myself working with AI when I started in Tissue Engineering?

In this video I discuss whether you should get further education beyond a bachelor's degree. There are many types of further schooling you can go into including a master's and phd, medical school, nursing school, pharmacy...

Engineers are joining forces with designers, scientists and doctors at Drexel University to produce new biomedical textiles, and the resulting smart clothes are not only fashionably functional, but could also be life savers. With support...

Combat, cancer and accidents - all can cause devastating nerve injuries. Sometimes, the body heals on its own. ""Your peripheral nerves, the ones in the arms and the face, have an inherent ability to regenerate, but only under ideal...

Imagine having the ability to manipulate light waves in order to see through a skull right into the brain, or being able to use lasers to diagnose a bacterial infection in a matter of minutes. At the Center for Biophotonic Sensors and...

According to the World Health Organization, the Ebola outbreak that started in West Africa in 2014 has sickened nearly 30,000 people, killing about one third of them. Detection of the Ebola virus is currently the only way to keep the...

With support from the National Science Foundation, biomedical engineer Bin He and his team at the University of Minnesota have created a brain-computer interface with the goal of helping people with disabilities, such as paralysis,...

After decades of research and billions spent in clinical trials, we still have a problem with cancer drug delivery, says biomedical engineer Elizabeth Wayne. Chemotherapy kills cancer -- but it kills the rest of your body, too. Instead...

One hundred sixty years after the invention of the needle and syringe, we're still using them to deliver vaccines; it's time to evolve. Biomedical engineer Mark Kendall demos the Nanopatch, a one-centimeter-by-one-centimeter square...

Robots are designed for speed and precision -- but their rigidity has often limited how they're used. In this illuminating talk, biomedical engineer Giada Gerboni shares the latest developments in "soft robotics," an emerging field that...

Aerospace and mechanical engineering are often a common toss up for students because these majors are so similar. The classes you take for both these disciplines are extremely similar. As an aerospace engineer you will take more specific...
