Program Description

Neurotechnology is a rapidly emerging field of deep technology at the intersection of neuroscience, engineering, artificial intelligence, and medical devices. Example neurotechnologies include brain-machine interfaces for virtual/augmented reality, implanted biomedical devices for treating neurological disorders, brain-inspired artificial intelligence, thought-controlled robotic arms, and biophotonic nanointerfaces for treating psychiatric disorders.

Program Admissions Requirements

Students need full major status in a STEM major (preferably Electrical, Computer, Biomedical, or Mechanical Engineering, but not required), a 3.0 GPA and a C minimum grade in PHYS 2210 AND MATH 2250 (or MATH 2270 and 2280) to be admitted to the undergraduate minor program. After completing the pre-requisite courses, students should fill out the Minor application on the Neural Engineering website and meet with an ECE or BME advisor or the Neural Engineering program coordinator to declare the minor.
