MU is renowned for its excellence in education and engineering and has a long history of successful research collaborations with MCW.
The Biomedical Engineering Program at MU, founded in 1968 and later elevated to department status in 1990, has played a pivotal role in producing industry leaders in healthcare and advancing research and education in various areas including orthopaedics, rehabilitation engineering, medical imaging, cardiopulmonary modeling, device development, informatics, and computational biology.

With a focus on interdisciplinary collaboration, the Chair will strategically align leadership with the collective goals of both MU and MCW, capitalizing on existing strengths and exploring new areas that align with strategic synergies. The biomedical engineering field, influenced by rapid technological advancements, necessitates an interdisciplinary approach to education, research, and patient care. The joint department aims to leverage the collective expertise of both institutions, to pioneer a groundbreaking model in biomedical engineering research that addresses the evolving healthcare landscape and advance patient safety and clinical outcomes while remaining an educational leader.
Duties and Responsibilities
