MASTER OF SCIENCE

BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

Career-focused learning

It’s an incredibly dynamic field, with almost unlimited promise for the treatment of health conditions, and there’s no better place to enter it than in the hands-on, student-centered, and career-focused learning environment of our master’s program in biomedical engineering.


Explore all of the fascinating focus areas


The program provides you with exciting opportunities to explore multidisciplinary focus areas that address:

  • Medical devices such as artificial lungs, replacement heart valves, pacemakers, dental implants, catheters, stents, and hip and knee prostheses
  • Biomaterials in medicine (metals, ceramics, polymers, nanomaterials)
  • Biomedical Imaging
  • Biomedical Instrumentation — for example, biosensors and bioanalytics
  • Tissue Engineering

With a biomedical engineering master’s degree from the University of New Haven you will be superbly prepared to take your place in the field as a competent engineer with skills set sought by the global market and as a researcher capable of independent investigation. You will also have another skill to add to your set— the ability to present results of an independent investigation cogently. In the 21st century, engineers are expected to be comfortable in communicating their ideas and findings. In fact, it has become a must for employers.

How To Apply


Application to the MS-CHEM Program

Applicants to the master of science in chemistry program must have earned or be close to earning a bachelor’s degree in chemistry or related STEM fields and must meet some background course requirements in BS-CHEM as specified here. In addition:

  • GPA requirement: Admission will usually require a 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale.
  • Transcripts: Applicants will submit an official transcript displaying the seal of the institution and signed by the registrar.
  • Letters of recommendation: No more than three letters of recommendations are required. Students must submit only three letters written by those best suited to comment on the student’s academic and/or research skills
  • Personal Statement: Students must submit a personal statement about their background including life experiences, why they want to pursue a master’s degree in chemistry, and what are their personal aspirations and career goals.
  • TOEFL/IELTS/PTE: : A minimum overall score of 75 in TOEFL, a minimum overall score of 6.0 in IELTS, or a minimum score of 50 in PTE . Applicants who have earned or will earn a bachelor’s degree will be exempt from submitting a TOEFL/IELTS score if the degree was earned from an institution where the language of instruction is English.

Application to a BS+MS 5-Year (4+1) Program in Liaison with MS-CHEM

For applicants who do not hold a BS degree, you can apply for a special BS+MS 5-year program in Liaison with MS-CHEM. By this program, you will get a BS degree in your chosen major (e.g., Chemistry or Forensic Science) in the 4th year, and a MS degree in chemistry in the 5-th year. This program allows you to save one-year of study time and financial cost on earning both BS and MS degrees, and provide you better opportunity to pursue for a PhD study or to excel in your future career. To apply for this special program, you must meet the admission requirements of your chosen BS program. As long as you maintain an overall GPA of 3.0 or above by the end of your 2nd year of BS program study, you will be advised to take the courses for the BSMS 5-year program starting in your 3rd-year.

Apply Online!

Please use the link the below to apply for an undergraduate program (e.g., Chemistry or Forensic Science) that is in liaison with the MS-CHEM program. Once you are admitted into the BS program, you can contact your BS coordinator or then MS chemistry program coordinator to sign up for the BS+MS (4+1) program.
