The College of Engineering (CoE) of the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez (UPRM) will to study the feasibility for establishing a new program track in Bioengineering under the proposed project 'Bioengineering Research and Education (BReEd) Experiences.' The BReEd program track has two main purposes 1) to prepare students for job opportunities in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, medical devices and computer information industry; and 2) to prepare engineering and biotechnology students and for graduate education programs in Bioengineering or related fields (e.g., medical school, biology, clinical sciences.) The certificate in bioengineering will provide minority students an opportunity to get an introduction to a rapidly developing field of study and to receive recognition for their endeavors. Students in the program must fulfill all the requirements for an Engineering undergraduate degree and also meet the additional requirements of the Certificate program. The BReEd project should provide broad bioengineering research and education experiences to undergraduate engineering students. After completing the track requirements students will obtain a Certificate of Enhancement in Bioengineering. Through the BReEd program students should obtain new career experiences through an enhanced curriculum, research experiences and industry internships. The new track should support the goals of ABET EC2000 and apply advances in the science of learning.

工程学院（CoE）的波多黎各大学马亚圭斯（UPRM）将研究在生物工程下建立一个新的程序轨道的可行性项目“生物工程研究和教育（BReEd）的经验。BReEd计划轨道有两个主要目的：1）为学生在生物技术，制药，医疗设备和计算机信息行业的就业机会做好准备; 2）为工程和生物技术学生以及生物工程或相关领域的研究生教育课程做好准备（例如，医学院，生物学，临床科学。）生物工程证书将为少数民族学生提供一个机会，介绍一个快速发展的研究领域，并为他们的努力获得认可。该计划的学生必须满足工程本科学位的所有要求，并满足证书课程的附加要求。BReEd项目应该为本科工程专业的学生提供广泛的生物工程研究和教育经验。完成课程要求后，学生将获得生物工程增强证书。通过BReEd计划，学生应该通过增强的课程，研究经验和行业实习获得新的职业经验。新的轨道应支持ABET EC 2000的目标，并应用学习科学的进步。
