In partnership with the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW), the Biomedical Engineering program is interdisciplinary in nature, involving the application of engineering and mathematics to the solution of problems related to medicine and biology. The faculty reflect this interdisciplinary nature in their courses and research.
向日葵视频faculty are synergistically complemented by faculty from the . The Department of Biomedical Engineering fosters collaborative interactions between the two institutions.
Our biomedical engineering program is a STEM-designated program, which means international students are eligible to apply for 36 months of Optional Practical Training, allowing employers to potentially hire international students for up to three years instead of only one.

Master of Engineering 鈥� Specializations: Bioinstrumentation, Biomechanics, Biomedical Imaging, Cellular and Molecular Engineering, Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, Rehabilitation Bioengineering
The Master of Engineering in Biomedical Engineering is a non-thesis degree requiring 30 credit hours and a capstone comprehensive exam. It is designed for working engineers.
Applicants are encouraged to have at least one year of post-baccalaureate professional work experience prior to starting the program.
No financial assistance (fellowships, research and teaching assistantships) is provided to students in the master of engineering program.
ME applicants apply through .
Doctor of Philosophy 鈥� Specializations: Bioinstrumentation, Biomechanics, Biomedical Imaging, Cellular and Molecular Engineering, Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, Rehabilitation Bioengineering
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in BME is a research degree that is intended to provide the graduate with the breadth and depth of knowledge in one area of specialization within BME, as well as the scientific research training needed for successful careers in academia, biomedical industry, or government. The research training process begins with the student working closely with his or her Dissertation Director and participating in his or her research program. Building on these experiences, the student begins to conduct independent research that eventually leads to an original contribution to the BME field.
PhD applicants apply through the .

To be eligible for admission to the Graduate School at 向日葵视频, applicants must meet the following requirements:
Applicants to the biomedical engineering graduate programs must have completed a bachelor's degree in engineering, physical science or life science disciplines, and if not, the faculty admissions committee may require prerequisite course(s) to be completed.
Read all application instructions prior to beginning an application.
1Upon admission, final official transcripts from all previously attended colleges/universities, with certified English translations if original language is not English, must be submitted to the Graduate School within the first five weeks of the term of admission or a hold preventing registration for future terms will be placed on the student鈥檚 record.
This program has rolling admission, which means you may apply and submit all application materials any time before the following dates:
Applicants who wish to be considered for merit-based financial aid (graduate assistantships/fellowships) should be aware of the merit-based financial aid deadlines by which all applicant materials must be received by the Graduate School:
The Department of Biomedical Engineering draws on the university's financial aid resources and seeks additional public and private funds to offer qualified graduate students opportunities as research fellows, teaching assistants, research assistants and minority student fellows. Applicants may also be considered for the Research Leaders Fellowship. Private scholarships may also be available. U.S. citizens and permanent residents may be eligible to apply for need-based federal aid (loans) to help fund their educational expenses as well.
