HST Biomedical Engineering Doctoral Program: MEMP
H. Frederick Bowman
Mon Jan 30, 02-03:00pm, E25-119

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up

HST's Medical Engineering and Medical Physics (MEMP) Program is one of the largest biomedical engineering doctoral programs in the nation. This program is intended to provide sufficient grounding in medicine, science, and engineering to enable students to both formulate and solve problems at the interface of technology, biomedical sciences, and clinical medicine. An HST faculty member and current MEMP students will present and discuss unique features of the HST PhD program in Biomedical Engineering, and will answer any questions students might have.

Single session event

Yes... MIT joined with Harvard University and Harvard Medical School in 1970 to form the "Health Sciences and Technology" (HST) Program. HST's Medical Sciences curriculum leads to an M.D. degree from Harvard Medical School. Classes are given both at MIT and Harvard, and students in this program are registered as graduate students at at both institutions. This program is oriented toward students with strong interests in a career in biomedical research. Typically half of those students who matriculate majored in biological sciences and half in physical sciences. In this information session, Dr. Shannon will present and discuss all aspects of the MD program. Please email address below to sign up.
