In the next five years, we will:

• Be a biomedical hub in Colorado, with international reach and impact to improve human health.
• Be a program with mutual ties to regional life sciences and healthcare industries.
• Be a program with seamless connections and collaborations with the University of Colorado Anschutz.
• Be a program that supports and fosters large interdisciplinary activities and centers.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Become a hub for interdisciplinary biomedical research activity as measured by doubling our grant dollars that have faculty participants from more than one discipline, and facilitated by hosting a local biomedical engineering symposium.
• Double the number of externally funded projects in collaboration with researchers from the听University of Colorado Anschutz听by initiating and expanding mechanisms (e.g., seminar series, workshops) to promote collaborations.
• Provide incentives to faculty who pursue听a center or interdisciplinary grant of at least $5M involving multiple BME faculty.
• Provide incentives to faculty who pursue a major graduate training grant.
• Encourage faculty to organize and host at least five scientific research conferences, with seed funding from our program.
• Evaluate whether BME organized as a program or department is best suited to carry out our research vision.

In the next five years, we will:

• Be known for experiential undergraduate learning with real-world impact that is integrated with life sciences and healthcare industries.
• Be known for interdisciplinary graduate training that enables solving the most complex problems impacting听human health and quality of life.
• Be known as a welcoming community and destination for students of diverse backgrounds that reflect global population demographics.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Provide听at least 18 industry-sponsored senior design projects annually by Fall 2026, and expand the types of senior design projects available to students interested in medical school or graduate school.
• Establish dedicated instructional, fabrication, and testing space for industry-sponsored student projects at undergraduate and graduate levels, which includes wet lab and cell/tissue culture facilities, in addition to space for collaborative work in the mechanical and electrical sciences.
• Establish at least 10 BME undergraduate focus technical electives by Fall 2026 through offerings from BME instructional faculty and collaborating with partnering departments.
• Develop the capacity to increase total BME undergraduate enrollment to at least 400 by Fall 2026, and BME MS/PhD enrollments to at least 50/40, by adding another teaching professor, growing graduate student support, and strengthening ties with departments.
• Increase the number of program faculty who are advising BME doctoral students, from 8 to 15.
• Survey our students to confirm that at least 80% of our graduates are in a professional position or school, within six months of graduation.
• Evaluate whether BME organized as a program or department is best suited to carry out our education vision.

In the next five years, we will:

• Be known as a community that welcomes diverse thought and experience, while valuing equity and inclusion, and fosters a sense of personal accountability.
• Be a community reflecting global population demographics to enhance perspectives to improve human health.
• Be a program where faculty, students, and staff feel a sense of belonging that enables participation to achieve their potential in biomedical research and education.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Achieve demographics of our program that reflect those of the region at the undergraduate level, and nation/world at the graduate level.
• Use best practices to create an unbiased system for reviewing graduate student applications.
• Partner with at least two high schools and colleges serving primarily black, tribal, Hispanic or other underrepresented groups in order to recruit a more diverse group of undergraduate and graduate students.
• Implement newsletters, social and professional events, and 鈥渢own halls鈥� or forums to build community and open communications.
• Evaluate whether BME organized as a program or department is best suited to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.
