|
Applicants should have a bachelor's degree in engineering (biomedical, chemical, electrical, industrial, mechanical, etc.) from an ABET-accredited program or its equivalent. Each application is judged on the basis of previous academic record, Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) scores for the general test, three letters of recommendation, and the statement of purpose. International students may be required to take the TOEFL examination. International students are expected to have a TOEFL score of 625 or better for serious consideration for admission to the graduate program in biomedical engineering. Students scoring less than 600 are discouraged from applying. Students admitted to the program may have to make up deficiency course requirements. In addition, all applicants must satisfy requirements that are set forth by the Graduate School. Students should refer to the Graduate School admission requirements for details.
This material should be received by the Biomedical Engineering Department by the following deadline dates: Fall February 15; Spring October 1; and Summer February 1. Note checklists provided by BME and the Graduate School. The application cannot be processed until we have received all of the application material and the file is complete.
Signed and dated application forms. Note: Department Major Code is 115.
Statement of purpose explaining why you want to pursue further education in BME.
Three letters of recommendation. These letters are required from people who can accurately judge your academic performance. Please visit the Graduate School webpage entitled "Letters of Recommendation Process" for instructions.
Official GRE aptitude scores. Notify ETS to send the scores to us (institution code 1846, department 1603).
Official TOEFL scores. Required for international students unless a degree from a U.S. educational institution is held (institution code 1846, department 69).
Application fee — by check or money order, in U.S. dollars--payable to the University of Wisconsin. Send this directly to the Graduate School. By state law, this fee cannot be waived or deferred.
Official transcripts of all undergraduate and graduate academic work. One official copy must be sent to the BME Program for each school attended. Please do not send transcripts or any other departmental documentation to the Graduate School.
