What makes MEMP unique?
The MEMP program differs significantly from many biomedical engineering (BME) doctoral programs because of its breadth and its depth in multiple dimensions. It not only emphasizes grounding in a classical discipline but it also provides much more exposure to the medical sciences than most BME programs. This exposure comes in many forms, including MD coursework in which MD students are peers as well as through multiple clinical experiences. The MEMP program also provides an open environment that allows students to follow their interests even when they cross the conventional barriers between disciplines, professions and institutions.
