Biomedical Engineering (M.S.)

Wayne State University's Biomedical Engineering (BME) program, among the nation's oldest, is renowned for its pioneering research in injury biomechanics. By equipping students with essential theories and techniques, it addresses pressing societal challenges such as epidemics, premature mortality, pain, and disability from trauma and aging. By nurturing expertise in biomedical engineering, the program plays a pivotal role in advancing healthcare and contributing to societal well-being.

Admission to this program is contingent upon admission to the Graduate School. In addition, the minimum requirements for admission into the M.S. Program in Biomedical Engineering are:

Official transcripts from an accredited institution showing completion of an engineering baccalaureate degree. Students with a baccalaureate degree from a non-engineering discipline will be considered for admission to the program if they have the prerequisite coursework in Calculus (1, 2, and Differential Equations) and Physics (1 and 2). Students without subsequent mathematical application coursework (e.g. life science) must have passed these courses with a grade of ‘B’ or better.

A Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale will be considered for Regular Admission and GPA between 2.8 and 3.0 will be considered for Qualified Admission.
