The Master in Science Biomedical Engineering program is jointly offered by UT Health San Antonio and The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). The objective of the program is to train students in the use of basic biomedical engineering approaches for the investigation of fundamental bioengineering questions associated with the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. The educational goals of this program are founded on the belief that the basic scientific approach is critical to the fundamental understanding of human health and the treatment of disease. Students in this program have access to biosciences and bioengineering laboratories at both UT Health San Antonio and UTSA.
Students interested in this program apply through UTSA.
