What are the advantages of the SGUS program?
Many employers now favor hiring more highly trained engineers at the entry level of the profession. Many in the academic community feel that a combined B.S.E./M.S.E. program will soon become the accepted standard training for engineers. The Biomedical Engineering SGUS program is also unique in that students will also have the option of continuing their academic careers in medical school. The SGUS program is an integrated program that facilitates the completion of a M.S.E. degree with two semesters of study beyond that required for the B.S.E. degree. Up to nine hours of required course work can be double counted within the combined program. Thus, with proper planning and scheduling, a semester of study may be eliminated, and students should be able to complete the B.S.E. and M.S.E. degrees within five years of study. Upon completion of the SGUS program students have all the job possibilities available with their traditional engineering degree, as well as the additional possibilities cre
