Approved Coursework Listing for PhD/MSE
This list contains previously approved coursework to meet requirements of the BME programs of work. This list is not exhaustive. If you are interested in courses not on this list, send a request to the Graduate Advisor (edward.castillo@utexas.edu) and include the course number, name, and the requirement for which you want to use the course. Students must gain prior approval before enrolling in courses not on this list, with a few exceptions:
Any graduate level course with the BIO or MOL prefix can count toward the biological and clinical sciences requirement.
Any graduate level course with the M or SDS prefix can count toward the math and statistics requirement.
Biological and Clinical Sciences
These courses will satisfy the biological and clinical sciences requirement and technical elective requirements.
