Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering - Research

The research track is geared to prepare the graduate for further graduate study or a career in biomedical research. A student shall complete a minimum of 30 credit hours. This includes a minimum of 24 hours of course work (15 credits of electives in specialty areas, 6 credits of mathematics core courses, 3 credits of life science elective), one semester of the Biomedical Engineering Seminar, and 6 semester credit hours of Master’s Thesis or 3 credit hours of Master’s Project. Students electing Master’s project will need to take one additional biomedical engineering elective course. All students in the research track are required to complete a research project under the supervision of an advisor and a committee.The Master of Science degree offers world’s ahead biomedical engineering education combined with opportunities for cutting-edge innovation and relevant research. Our graduates prepare for academic, clinical, or industrial research and development in Basic Research in Engineered Tissue Model Systems, Diagnostic Bioimaging and Sensor Systems, or Therapeutic and Reparative Neurotechnology. These programs provide an interdisciplinary education intended to prepare the student for professional practice in Biomedical Engineering. All work counted for the Master’s degree must be completed during the six years immediately following the date of admission to the graduate program.

A student seeking admission into the program must have a bachelor’s degree in engineering, the physical/life sciences, computer science, or A minimum 3.00 grade point average (GPA) in a completed undergraduate degree programGRE, GMAT or EXADEPLetter of intentLetters of recommendation (use the Letter of recommendation template)ResumePortfolio/audition/interview.
