Dear Prof. Morling (Beth),

 

Following discussions with Deans Chajes and Watson, I am confident that the resources exist at the university to support the proposed BS in biomedical engineering.  These resources – specifically to support the required chemistry courses - will be reallocated from areas that are currently under-enrolled. 

 

It should be clear to the Faculty Senate committees that we are not proposing an increase in the overall number of students at UD with this new program, thus the net fiscal burden on the university by offering this new program is unchanged.

 

Best regards,

 

Tom
