Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Biomedical Engineering - Bioelectrical Engineering] From Hope College

Our program emphasizes small class sizes, the opportunity to carry out research with faculty and state-of-the-art laboratories. Hope engineering students are often double majors or participants in athletics. At Hope, we offer the kind of one-on-one attention that insures that each student reaches his or her potential. Faculty are focused on the success of undergraduate students as our most important goal.

Our engineering curriculum is designed to help students identify and define their interests and provide the technical background needed to begin work as an engineer or continue on to advanced graduate study. Our approach to engineering education includes challenging coursework in engineering fundamentals in the classroom and laboratory. Other aspects include rigorous study of science and mathematics and a broad education in the humanities and social sciences.

The Hope College engineering program has an excellent record of placing students after graduation, either in graduate schools or industry. Our recent graduates have taken jobs with such industry leaders as: Intel, Ford, Honda, Pfizer, Lockheed-Martin and Hewlett-Packard. About one-third of our students directly enter graduate school, many at top ranked schools, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Michigan, Stanford University and Princeton University.

The mission of the Hope College Engineering Program is to provide engineering students with a solid foundation in engineering and the underlying mathematics and sciences within the framework of a liberal arts education, and to contribute to the education of other Hope College students.
