Cardiac electrophysiology and biophysics is a field that covers all aspects of the heart's electrical functions, incorporating both fundamental research and clinical applications, ranging from molecular processes to whole-body systems. Studies in this domain explore fundamental questions about cellular, organ, and bodily functions while also working to create innovative techniques, treatments, and technologies with significant potential to address heart and vascular disorders. Even with substantial advancements in diagnosis and treatment, cardiovascular conditions continue to be the primary cause of mortality in industrialized nations. Investigations in cardiac electrophysiology employ cutting-edge technologies, including bioinstrumentation, multichannel data collection and analysis, molecular biology, diverse imaging techniques, computational modeling, and various computer-based applications.

Qualification Requirements

Applicants must have received, prior to commencing graduate study, a Bachelor's degree from an accredited institute, college, or university. Although no single field of undergraduate specialization is required, applicants to the program must have a thorough undergraduate background in engineering and life sciences. They are expected to have mastered basic material in the following areas:
mathematics (calculus through differential equations)
physics (college physics with calculus including mechanics and electronics)
chemistry (organic and/or biochemistry)
materials science (introductory course or strength of materials)
biology (introductory human anatomy or physiology)

Unofficial Transcripts for Applicants: Unofficial copies of transcripts from all colleges and universities attended should be uploaded into the AY system at the time of application. For foreign institutions, include transcripts in the original language, plus official English translations if the original language is not English.
GRE Scores: Test scores are generally required for the graduate program.
Letters of Reference: We require at least three letters of personal reference from course instructors, research supervisors, or employers who are familiar with your abilities and performance.

All aspects of an application will be seriously considered during the evaluation process. However, typically successful applicants have a cumulative GPA that meets or exceeds ~3.5 and GRE scores of ~156 verbal, ~165 quantitative, ~4 analytical writing.
