Tiffany Raber asked Leann Tengowski, Vanderbilt University Medical Center AddedTuesday, February 16, 2021 at 4:24 PM Can I combine surgery with biomedical engineering? Hi Leann - I teach STEAM topics to a group of super intelligent 6th grade girls in Los Angeles, CA. Their assignment was to find a woman engineer that inspires them and ask questions. From Renee Gan: Hi! My name is Renee and I'm really interested in becoming a neurosurgeon when I grow up. Lately, I've done a school project on a biomedical engineer and it really caught my eye. I have a question about it. If I also want to do surgery, would I be able to combine doing surgery and also doing some things that a biomedical engineer would do such as using artificial organs and stuff similar to that? Thank you! Related to Bioengineering/Biomedical, Choosing a Degree, Engineering Branches, Engineering Skills, Merging Fields
