Neuroengineering
Bachelor of Science Degree in Biomedical Engineering:
197.5 credits
About the concentration
This concentration focuses on the theory of neural signaling, as well
as addressing issues that have a neuroscientific basis, such as locomotion
and pattern generation, central control of movement, and the processing
of sensory information. Students pursing this concentration will learn
the fundamental theory of cellular potentials and chemical signaling,
the
Hodgkin Huxeley
description
of action potential generation, circuit representations of neurons and
be able to derive and integrate equations describing the circuit as well
as design computer models.
Upon graduation, students will be able to:
- model specific aspects of neural systems;
- understand control system theory as applied to neural systems;
- understand how neuroengineering can be applied in clinical situations.
