It wouldn't hurt to look into going to that major, either. If you don't go for it as an undergrad, look into doing it as a grad student.

For example, my school only offers Biomedical (and, for that matter, Biological) Engineering as a grad course of study--I believe it's through the Chemical and Biological Engineering department. But there are courses you could take to prepare for it--talk to whoever coordinates that sort of thing at your school to see which courses they'd recommend taking as undergrad electives if you wanted to go into that field.
