• The Carnegie Mellon University offers an M.Sc in Biomedical Engineering program for a duration of 2 years.
  • It is a Full-time course.
  • MS program offers a broad range of courses in all areas of biomedical engineering. Considerable flexibility is allowed in the selection of courses to adapt to diverse interests, educational backgrounds, and career plans.
  • Other than this numerous areas of specialization are possible, created sample course menus based on specific areas of interest and educational backgrounds. These include biomaterials and nanotechnology, tissue engineering, computational and general neural engineering, computational and general biomechanics and transport, design of medical devices.
  • This program gives students the flexibility to focus most of their courses on their area of interest but also ensures a well-rounded graduate. As part of their overall coursework, students must take a course in at least three out of five core areas: physiology and cellular/molecular biology, biomaterials and tissue engineering, biomechanics, biomedical imaging and bioinformatics, and neuroengineering.
  •  All students are also required to take the Biomedical Engineering Seminar (42-701) or (42-801) during each semester of residence to learn how established professionals are applying biomedical engineering to research, industry, and other pursuits.
  • The traditional Research-Option M.S. program facilitates careers that require a combination of advanced knowledge in biomedical engineering and independent research skills. Limited Financial Aid is available for full-time students.
  • Learning Outcomes of this program is:
    • Strengthen and broaden skillsets/competency through exposure to graduate-level courses in Biomedical Engineering
    • Ability to apply mathematics and engineering principles to solve problems found in practical settings
    • Acquire depth in one primary subject area
    • Ability to work in teams to propose, plan, and execute projects of engineering relevance
    • Ability to disseminate engineering work to a broad professional community via written and oral communication
    •  Ability in applying engineering, professional, and communication skills to applied problems in an industrial, clinical, or research setting.
  • Job opportunities after the M.Sc in Biomedical Engineering and the average salary goes up to 77,440 USD.
