The Department of Bioengineering offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in bioengineering, a field at the interface between medicine and engineering.
As of 2010, the department includes 51 active core faculty, including six members of the National Academy of Engineering.
The faculty conduct a mix of basic and applied multi-disciplinary research; particularly in the following four areas: regenerative medicine & biomaterials, molecular & cellular engineering, imaging & image-guided therapy, and technology to reduce the cost of health care.
In 2016, UW Bioengineering was awarded US$25.03 million in research funding, primarily from federal sources such as the National Institutes of Health, United States Department of Defense and National Science Foundation.

In addition to the core faculty, the department comprises 51 adjunct faculty, 53 postdoctoral fellows, 131 on-campus graduate students, 209 undergraduate students, and a growing number of off-campus students through an online professional master’s program.

As of February 2011, UW Bioengineering is ranked #9 in the nation for its graduate program and #11 for its undergraduate program, according to U.S. News & World Report.
