McGill University, Masters of Engineering in Biological and Biomedical Engineering (Thesis), Duration

The Biological and Biomedical Engineering (BBE) graduate program is an interfaculty program involving the Department of Bioengineering in the Faculty of Engineering and the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the Faculty of Medicine. The BBME interfaculty program builds on the excellence and high standard of its predecessor graduate program in Biomedical Engineering.

This broader interfaculty restructuring supports the growing trend in research universities toward formalized interdisciplinary studies and multi-faculty collaboration. The Biological and Biomedical Engineering Master's program focuses on the interdisciplinary application of methods, paradigms, technologies, and devices from engineering and the natural sciences to problems in biology, medicine, and the life sciences.

With its unique multidisciplinary environment and taking advantage of research collaborations between staff in the Faculties of Medicine, Science, and Engineering, BBE offers thesis-based graduate degrees (M.Eng.) that span broad themes, including biomodelling, biosignal processing, me...

With its unique multidisciplinary environment and taking advantage of research collaborations between staff in the Faculties of Medicine, Science, and Engineering, BBE offers thesis-based graduate degrees (M.Eng.) that span broad themes, including biomodelling, biosignal processing, medical imaging, nanotechnology, artificial cells and organs, probiotics, bioinformatics, orthopedics, biological materials, and mechanobiology, motor proteins, and the cytoskeleton, biosensors and biological therapeutics, biological networks, and computational biology.

BBE's internationally renowned staff provides frequent and stimulating interactions with physicians, scientists, and the biomedical industry. Through courses and thesis research, this program will prepare students for careers in industry, academia, hospitals, and government and provide a solid basis for Ph.D. studies.

Candidates should hold a Bachelor's degree in engineering, science, or medicine with a strong emphasis on mathematics, physics, chemistry, and basic biology (physiology, cell biology, or molecular biology).
