Overview

Overview

The Bioengineering Science program at GBCC is intended for those who have a strong passion for problem-solving, creativity, and biological sciences.  Our program has a strong focus on the first two years of a bachelor program in the biological and physical sciences. Bioengineers work in conjunction with doctors and other researchers to design and develop equipment to solve clinical problems. 

Why Great Bay?

We have an 11 to 1 student to faculty ratio which provides students a robust opportunity for greater campus involvement and success. With an excellent proximity to neighboring industries at the Pease Tradeport, the University of New Hampshire, and the Naval Shipyard, our students have the flexibility to enhance their education to meet their professional goals.

The transfer program has been developed in consultation with the University of New Hampshire’s College of Engineering and Physical Sciences to align program requirements for transfer purposes.

Career Options

Bioengineering graduates have the option to work in industry, the government, and academia.
