An MS degree will offer the freedom of choosing a path of Industry or Research. This degree also allows for some freedom for Bioengineers interested in both fields. A MEng. degree strictly caters to the Industry side of Bioengineering with no research needed to complete. It is intended for students who are primarily interested in engineering design, development, manufacturing and management within an industrial or professional setting. (Margene Wight, 2007.06.
