BIOE 507

Graduate Research Components I

Students take BIOE 507 as a Component I of the research concentration of the MBE program. The class is 2 credit hours counting toward an MBE degree. The project may vary depending on the mentor’s group focus and range from lab assay work, material studies, design, and assembly of biomedical devices, simulations, and many others. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for BIOE 507 if student has credit for BIOE 307.

BIOE 538

Engineering The Nervous System

This course will introduce students to engineering approaches to understand development, function, and therapeutic approaches for the central nervous system. Content will be organized into three modules including neural development, neural tissue engineering approaches, and multi-omic computational strategies. Each module will discuss how concepts relate to other tissue system and provide context on neural disease. Instruction will be delivered through a mixture of lecture, journal club discussion, seminars from experts in each area, and hands-on instruction. Recommended Prerequisite(s): BIOE 370 or BIOE 517

BIOE 607

Res Concentration Component II

Students take BIOE 607 as a Component II of research concentration of the MBE program. The class is 5 credit hours counting toward MBE degree. The project focuses on research project defined within Component I and its results. Results will be presented to open forum of students and faculty. The grade for this class is awarded based on the report and presentation.
