The Woodruff School offers a rigorous graduate program designed for students with backgrounds in engineering, mechanics, mathematics, and the sciences, leading to a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering. While most graduate courses are optional, each study plan must fulfill the School's standards for breadth, depth, and academic level.
Bioengineering applies engineering principles to analyze and manipulate biological systems. This interdisciplinary field aims to combine engineering and life sciences to deepen our understanding of biological mechanisms and create innovative solutions for medical and biological challenges. Key research areas at Georgia Tech include advanced biomaterials, medical devices, micro/nano-scale diagnostic systems, stem cell technologies, neuroscience, biological modeling, and mechanobiology. The institute is at the forefront of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, focusing on cellular therapies and biomaterial applications to restore or improve bodily functions—from artificial skin to bioengineered organs and vascular systems.
