Academics Graduate Program

The Biomedical Engineering Department offers three programs leading to the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.), Master of Science (M.S.) Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) and Certificate degrees.

The School of Engineering also offers an cross-departmental, interdisciplinary bioengineering (M.S./M.Eng.) program that provides a broad engineering and biotechnology curriculum, while offering a focus on a specific engineering track that best fits students' interests and career choices. This combination gives our bioengineering graduates professional flexibility, a distinct competitive advantage in the ever-changing field of bioengineering.

Entrance Requirements for the graduate program:
Applicants to the graduate program are expected to have a degree at the level of Bachelor or Master in engineering or basic/applied/health sciences. Requirements include a basic knowledge of biology, math through ordinary differential equations, and some basic engineering courses (for example, fluid mechanics, properties of materials, thermodynamics, circuit theory). Students who do not meet all requirements may be admitted into the program pending the successful completion of courses aimed at the fulfillment of the requirements. Tufts will offer the opportunity for students accepted into the graduate program to attend courses specifically designed to provide appropriate background in areas such as biology, mathematics, circuit theory, chemical engineering, etc.

Student Progress Forms:
Please fill out the applicable form by beginning of each semester and return it to the main Biomedical Engineering office.
