Master of Science
The M.S. program is intended to extend and broaden an undergraduate background and equip the graduates with fundamental knowledge in bioengineering. The M.S. degree may be terminal or may be obtained on the way to the Ph.D. The M.S. degree involves a combination of course work and original research. A total of forty-eight units of credit are required: thirty-six units (nine courses, six of which are the core courses) in course work and twelve units of Bioengineering Research (BE 299). A strong effort is made to schedule M.S. level courses offerings so that students may obtain their M.S. degree in one year of full-time study or two years of part-time study. Students are required to take the bioengineering core graduate courses and pass with a grade of B or better. Entering students who do not meet the prerequisites of these core courses may have to take some basic courses to make up the deficiency.
