  • Do not have to take GREs. Proficiency in English is expected.
  • Must fill out graduate school application, 3 letters of recommendation, provide a personal statement, CV/Resume, and indicate interest in Biomedical Engineering Master’s Program.
  • International applicants can find more information on this website.
