Biomedical engineering involves the application of engineering principles to problems in medicine and biology that develop new knowledge, advanced sensors and devices and improved health care.
Because of the multidisciplinary nature of the biomedical engineering research projects, the faculty of the F. Joseph Halcomb III, M.D. Department of Biomedical Engineering collaborates with investigators in many units across the University of Kentucky campus, including the Colleges of Engineering, Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy and Arts & Science; the Centers for Minimally Invasive Surgery, Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy and Membrane Science and the Advanced Science and Technology Commercialization Center and Institute For Sustainable Manufacturing.
You don’t need to wait for graduate school to participate in cutting-edge biomedical engineering research.

Explore research labs
The F. Joseph Halcomb III, M.D. Department of Biomedical Engineering provides space, equipment and staff support for multidisciplinary research in the application of engineering principles to problems in medicine and the biological sciences. One huge benefit to biomedical engineering research at UK is that the Medical Center and the College of Engineering are housed within a short walking distance of each other.
The department occupies the newly renovated 5th floor of the Robotics and Manufacturing Building. In addition to individual faculty laboratories, the department’s shared-use and collaborative environment offers capabilities that include: design and development of smart medical devices, electromechanical testing (compression, tension, and bending), microcomputed tomography, diffuse optical spectroscopy and tomography, advanced signal processing of cardiovascular and neural phenomena, computational analysis of musculoskeletal systems and evaluation of cellular and tissue mechanics.
The F. Joseph Halcomb III, M.D. Department of Biomedical Engineering sponsors a weekly seminar series in the fall and spring semesters.
These seminars cover topics in biomedical engineering and related fields. Biomedical engineering graduate students are required to present a seminar as a part of their degree requirements.
