Doctor of Philososphy [Ph.D] [Biomedical Engineering] From University of Oklahoma

The Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering requires ninety post-baccalaureate hours, which include the courses required for the M.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering and a minimum of nine additional hours of graduate level courses. Research credits make up the balance of the ninety hours. Three hours of this course work must be in the life sciences (graduate credit, chosen from the list below of approved life science courses), and the other six hours can be selected from engineering, science, or math courses (graduate credit) in consultation with the student's research supervisor. A student with a B.S. degree can enter the Ph.D. program directly; the student does not have to complete the M.S. thesis as part of the Ph.D. degree.? At the end of the program, the student will demonstrate excellence in scholarly research by authoring and successfully defending a Ph.D. Dissertation.?
