Engineering Major

<p>For both majors, you will have to go to grad school (if not med school) because the curricula is too broad-based for most employers.</p>

<p>The ES-nanomedicine engineering minor is brand new (maybe a year old) and I don’t know anyone that is taking the classes. I do know that to do well, you will have to be strong in physics and chem.</p>

<p>I am taking the BME nanomedicine class this fall, but it is restricted to 4th year students. We’re supposed to work on cancer and cardiovascular treatments.</p>

<p>Take a look at the student guide (PDF) at [University</a> of Virginia | Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME)](<a href=“http://bme.virginia.edu/undergraduate/index.html]University”>http://bme.virginia.edu/undergraduate/index.html) - there is a listing of the nanomedicine focus in BME as well as a description of some of the classes.</p>
