Specialization Tracks

The program includes two specialization tracks and a pre-medicine cluster:

  • "Bio-Mechanics, Bio-Materials and Tissue Engineering" Track
  • "Signals and Systems in Bio-Medical Engineering" Track
  • Pre-Medicine Cluster

═ One must choose one main specialization track - It is compulsory to take at least 5 courses from this truck.

═ Three additional courses:

One course, at least, has to be taken from the secondary track; it is permissible to take up to two courses from the list of faculty elective courses presented below.

═ Students who are interested in the Pre- Medicine Cluster have to decide on it no later than the end of the second year. These students have to take the courses written up in the cluster, according to the conditions written below.

═ Students who are interested in the Pre-Medicine cluster must come to a decision no later than the end of the second year. These students must take the courses given in the cluster, according to the terms written below.
