The Joint Biomedical Engineering Ph.D. program is offered through the Georgia Tech/Emory Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME). The degree is conferred jointly by both Georgia Tech and Emory. The curriculum is based on an integration of life sciences, engineering, and mathematics. The goal is to enable students to postulate and solve biomedical problems quantitatively and with a systems perspective. Both Georgia Tech and Emory faculty will provide an integrative teaching medium for students by "team-teaching" courses. Two years of core courses establish the fundamental principles in both life science and engineering. One of the advantages of the BME Department comes from the ability of Georgia Tech and Emory to plan research and educational activities in an exceptionally comprehensive strategy. Both universities have identified thrust areas in which to focus research and faculty recruiting. Both universities have identified five thrust areas in which to focus this research and faculty recruiting. The five areas include:
  • Cardiovascular Biomechanics and Biology
  • Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering
  • Neuroengineering
  • Biomedical Imaging and Informatics
  • Cellular and Biomolecular Engineering
