Graduate students in biomedical engineering participate in diverse, cutting-edge research spanning molecular, cellular, tissue, systems, and organismal levels, along with clinical applications. They develop expertise in modeling biological systems and creating innovative medical devices and techniques for both human and animal healthcare. The program equips graduates with comprehensive analytical and practical skills for conducting research and teaching at the intersection of engineering and life sciences. Prospective students should possess solid foundations in mathematics and engineering principles. The Biomedical Engineering Graduate Group (BMEGG) provides Master's and Doctoral programs designed to train professionals in bridging engineering with medical and biological fields. Research focuses include: bioelectricity & neural engineering, biomaterials & medical devices, biomechanics & mechanobiology, bioimaging & optical technologies, computational & synthetic biology, and molecular, cellular & tissue engineering. Students work closely with faculty advisors to customize their academic path according to personal career objectives.
Admission to graduate standing in the Biomedical Engineering Graduate Group (BMEGG) normally requires a Bachelor’s degree in a discipline relevant to biomedical engineering with a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.25 (out of 4.00).
Applicants whose native language or language of instruction is not English are required to demonstrate English Language Proficiency with a score of 100 on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) internet-based test or a score of 8.0 from the International English Language Testing System (IELTS).
