The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Virginia was established in 1967 as a joint program of U.Va.'s School of Medicine and School of Engineering and Applied Science. Today, everyone from prospective students to ABET accreditors takes note of BME's true dual culture in Engineering and Medicine, which is almost unique to U.Va. It's one reason why the Provost's Office has identified Biomedical Engineering – U.Va.'s top-ranked science or engineering program – as a strength to sustain in its Strategic Directions for the University of Virginia.
Our department is home to a Wallace H. Coulter Foundation Translational Partnership Award , which draws on the joint strengths of the U.Va. School of Engineering, School of Medicine, Darden School of Business, and Health Sciences Center.

The Medical Devices Technology Innovation Partnership (MD-TIP) Workshop, September 26, 2011
On Monday, September 26, 2011, the University of Virginia will co-sponsor a U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) workshop on medical device innovation, regulation, device education, and translational research. The Medical Devices Technology Innovation Partnership (MD-TIP) Project marks a new era of transparency and openness from the FDA, and U.Va. has been the lead partner on this important initiative from the start. The all-day workshop on Sept 26 will focus on two clinical areas—regulation of cancer diagnostics [in vitro and in vivo] and cardiovascular device regulation. The day will conclude with a discussion of a National Medical Device Development Curriculum. This exceptional event is free of charge, thanks to the U.Va.-Coulter Partnership for Translational Research and the U.Va. Office of the Vice President for Research. Location is Jordan Hall. To attend, please contact Angel Thompson (angelt@virginia.edu). More...
