 Graduate
Program
The Bioengineering Graduate Group is composed of a broad group of faculty drawn from different departments and schools of the University of Pennsylvania. The purpose of the Graduate Group is to administer a graduate program of instruction and research leading to the Masters and Ph.D. degrees in Bioengineering to students who meet the standards of the program.
Penn Bioengineering Graduate
Group offers courses of study in several areas of concentration leading
to the Ph.D. degree in Bioengineering. Information about faculty,
research programs, courses, and resources at Penn for advanced graduate
studies in bioengineering can be found on this website. Additional
information may be obtained from the department.
The current requirements are listed in the Masters and Ph.D. graduate student handbooks.
Degrees
