Program Description

The Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering degree is designed to foster independent scholarly work while providing flexibility to accommodate each student’s interests and career goals. Upon completion of the program, the students are expected to have broad knowledge and fundamental understanding of biomedical engineering principles, and gain a deeper understanding of advanced technologies and applications of biomedical engineering for solving problems in medicine.

Concentrations

  • Medical Devices, Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine

  • Rehabilitation and Biomechanics

  • Medical Imaging and artificial intelligence

  • General

Program Objectives

The program prepares students to:

  • identify biomedical engineering challenges and lead solution concepts using their knowledge of fundamental engineering principles, work experience and state of-the-art tools and techniques.

  • be among the leaders of the fields in development of biomedical devices, implants, tissues and systems to meet the needs of society.

  • establish themselves as leaders in their chosen career path by applying their skills in problem solving, teamwork, ethics, management, communication and their awareness of professional and social issues.

Program Outcomes

By the time of graduation, students will be able to:

  • identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

  • apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.

  • communicate effectively in writing and presentations.

  • recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.

  • develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
