Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering (MSc)

Master of Engineering (MEng) Thesis Route

The Biomedical Engineering program is offered in collaboration with the University of Alberta. The curriculum is designed for students with degrees in Engineering, Medicine, Physical Sciences, or Life Sciences. Background experience and qualifications, as well as areas of interest of the applicants will be taken into account at the time of admission. Students may study in this area in a relevant departmental program, and obtain that department's degree (e.g., Kinesiology, Mechanical Engineering, Medical Science). However, students desiring a degree in Biomedical Engineering must complete the requirements for the Biomedical Engineering degree.

Students at the 草莓污视频导航 must apply to the department of the intended supervisor. Students will be admitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies on the recommendation of the department and an Admissions Committee for the Biomedical Engineering program. All students must meet the admission requirements of both the Faculty of Graduate Studies and the respective department (the "home department"). Applicants must have adequate background in advanced mathematics and appropriate areas of the physical sciences. An applicant with a purely biology background may have to take courses to obtain the necessary background prior to admission.

See the listing for department(s) of intended supervisor.

According to home departmental regulations

All students are required to take the two Core Courses. Other courses may be chosen from the listing of Additional Courses or from other courses offered by the students' home department or approved course from other departments. Courses offered via video link from the University of Alberta will also be acceptable, subject to the approval of the supervisor. Students may be required to take senior undergraduate courses as deemed by their Supervisory Committee, but graduate credit will only be granted for senior undergraduate courses as approved by the student's department. For a Master of Science degree, all students are required to take a minimum of four courses (in MDSC only two are currently required) as approved by the home department. For a Doctor of Philosophy, two further elective courses are required beyond the Master of Science requirements. For a Master of Engineering (Thesis Route), five to eight half-courses are required, in accordance with the rules of the respective home department and the Faculty of Graduate Studies.

In addition to the course requirements, all students pursuing the Doctor of Philosophy, Master of Science, or Master of Engineering (Thesis Route) degrees are required to complete a research project and to submit a written thesis in compliance with the regulations of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and their departments.

Not applicable

According to home departmental regulations

According to Faculty of Graduate Studies regulations

A supervisory committee, approved by the graduate coordinator, will be established by the supervisor immediately upon the student's entry to the program. The committee will advise on course selection and research topic for the student. The supervisory committee normally will include academic staff members from at least two of the three participating faculties. Students will follow the guidelines of their home department regarding supervision, frequency of committee meetings, course changes, thesis proposals, candidacy examinations, etc.

A Master of Science, Master of Engineering, or Doctor of Philosophy in Biomedical Engineering does not entitle graduates to a designation of Professional Engineer. The title of Engineer, or Professional Engineer, is restricted to those who are members of a Provincial engineering association.

Faculty members in this program are based in the Faculties of Engineering, Kinesiology, Medicine and Science. Many BME faculty are cross-appointed to multiple departments. Information about BME faculty research can be found at .
