Georgia Tech's Bioengineering program is an interdisciplinary graduate
program offering advanced courses in bioengineering, engineering specialities,
and life sciences combined with hands on cutting-edge research. Bioengineering
research focuses on the development of new or improved physical and
mathematical concepts and techniques which may be applied to problems
in medicine and biology, including the fundamental study of biological
phenomena and the development of new medical devices. There are currently
over 170 graduate students in the program.
The participating academic units consist of
nine schools within the
College of Engineering as well as the College of Computing. Over
70 faculty from across the Colleges of Engineering, Sciences, and Computing
participate in the program.
