Biomedical Engineering Technology (BS)
As the health care field and technology's role in diagnostic, therapeutic and research activities continue to expand, so too will the need for biomedical engineering technology professionals. These technologists with a foundation-level understanding of biological processes and skills in both engineering software and hardware are essential to this multidisciplinary field, in which engineering technology principles are applied to solve problems in medicine and biology.

By providing a firm foundation in biological sciences as well as core competencies required of electronics engineering technologists, DeVry's Biomedical Engineering Technology (BMET) program develops graduates who can enter the work force as technical professionals with competencies in bioengineering processes and tools. BMET graduates play essential roles on the biomedical team, typically designing and implementing hardware and software solutions to biological or medical problems. The curriculum is applications-oriented in the areas of physiological bioinstrumentation and informatics, and provides graduates with the knowledge and skills needed to function effectively in multidisciplinary teams, adapt to changes in technical environments throughout their careers and progress in their professional responsibilities.

Biomedical Informatics (BS)
The interdisciplinary field of biomedical informatics draws on computer technology, information technology, the biosciences and health care systems. Significant breakthroughs in biological research have produced a barrage of data worldwide in areas such as genome analysis that hold the promise for a healthier future. At the same time, the need for expanded efficient and effective health care in today's global society is spurring continued growth in health care businesses while creating demand for technological advances and improved health care delivery systems. To continue these advances, the biomedical community requires expert support in collecting, organizing, sharing, analyzing and disseminating biomedical data and information.

To this end, DeVry designed its Biomedical Informatics (BMI) program to prepare graduates for professional positions in bioinformatics and health care informatics. Bioinformatics focuses on developing and managing information systems used in areas such as genomic research, forensics, and pharmaceutical and agricultural development. Health care informatics combines knowledge of information technology, health care systems and life sciences to develop effective and efficient use of information to implement improved health care systems.

Business Administration (BS)
Business organizations today are seeking professionals with broad-based knowledge of modern business theory and practices, and their interrelationships to meet the challenges of operating in a global electronic marketplace. The rapidly increasing pace of computer technology use by business is driving organizations to value employees who are knowledgeable in the application of technology to business strategy, management and decision-making.

DeVry's Business Administration program develops these competencies through case studies, team projects, Internet use and Web page development, as well as computer applications and systems integration.

The program offers majors (concentrations in Illinois, New York and Pennsylvania) in Accounting, Business Information Systems, E-Commerce, Health Services Management, Human Resource Management, Operations Management, Project Management, Sales and Marketing, and Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship. In addition, a general business option is available in lieu of a specific major/concentration. Request More Information

Computer Engineering Technology (BS)
Dramatic expansion of computer and communication network use has created many career opportunities for computer engineering technologists. These specialists have a mix of software development, hardware and engineering skills, and apply their expertise in diverse areas such as multiprocessor architecture, parallel computing, distributed computing, real-time systems, embedded systems, local and wide area networks, multimedia and the World Wide Web.

The Computer Engineering Technology (CET) program (Computer Technology program in New York) prepares graduates to join the work force as technical professionals in a variety of industries, including information technology. CET graduates take a hands-on approach to designing and implementing software, interfaces that link computers to other physical systems, and computer systems or other digital subsystems. They design software systems; create code and protocols; test and evaluate hardware and software products and processes; and diagnose and solve problems. Graduates should also possess appropriate knowledge, experience and skills to function effectively in multidisciplinary teams, adapt to changes in technical environments throughout their careers and progress in their professional responsibilities.
