Tyler’s Answer

There are multiple ways you can enter and advance in the field of biomedical engineering. First, I would recommend getting a degree in engineering to enter this field. It does not have to be a biomedical engineering major. We accept most engineering disciplines that relate to our products, (i.e. mechanical, electrical, computer science, software and robotics to name a few). I would recommend getting a base knowledge in anatomy and physiology so that you can understand the human body.

In order to excel within a engineering major make sure you take calculus, physics, chemistry, biology and robotics are great entry level courses you can take in high school and will prepare you for any of the engineering disciplines. Once you are in college try to get a research position or a internship. This will help you prepare for what direction you would like to go. You could go into research or industry depending on what your interests are.
