Sequential Undergraduate/Graduate Study (SUGS)

The five-year Sequential Undergraduate/Graduate Study (SUGS) program permits students who enter the program in the first term of their senior year to receive the B.S.E. and M.S.E. degrees (or the B.S.E. and M.S. degrees) upon completion of a minimum of 149 credit hours. Students should speak with the department advising staff to learn more about the SUGS application process and procedures. SUGS admissions requirements will vary. Please review the CoE Bulletin page for Combined Bachelor’s/Master’s Programs for further information.

Available programs include:

  • B.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S. in Cell and Molecular Biology/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Chemical Engineering/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Industrial and Operations Engineering/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Material Science Engineering/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Mechanical Engineering/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering
  • B.S.E. in Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences/M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering

Students who have not completed a B.S./B.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering or Cell & Molecular Biology will be required to complete an introductory course in Biology (or have AP Biology credit) plus one additional advanced Biology or Chemistry course (i.e. Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, Immunology, or Genetics).
