Master of Science [M.S] [Biomedical Engineering] From University of California

The Master of Science degree requires conducting a focused research project and completing designated coursework. Students must select a thesis advisor and complete an original research investigation including a written thesis, and obtain approval of the thesis by a thesis committee. In addition, the students must successfully complete a minimum of 42 units (refer to core and elective courses below) of course work beyond the bachelor's degree.

We are located in the heart of Orange County, the largest concentration of medical device companies in the nation. In addition, we are just 70 miles north of San Diego County, the nation's third largest concentration of biotech companies. The majority of our faculty collaborate and interact with these companies, providing a unique environment to perform relevant research addressing real-world concerns. It also provides for abundant opportunities to familiarize oneself with potential employers during the course of the graduate studies.

The faculty members in our program were selected specifically to focus on building up the core technologies and clinical research areas.
