Admissions
Curriculum
What is the curriculum?
Biomedical Engineering
The Department of Biomedical Engineering at The University of Memphis and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Biomedical Engineering at The University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, participate in the Joint Graduate Program in Biomedical Engineering. The Joint Program offers graduate programs leading to the degree of Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering. Start solving health problems in the Herff College of Engineering Biomed lab. Grow your own cells on a template to see how you might heal different parts of the body. Currently, we're developing a device that guides the treatment of septic shock better than ever before.
Engineering Technology
The Department of Engineering Technology also offers a graduate program leading to the Master of Science degree in Engineering Technology (M.S.E.T.). Students may select coursework in Computers and/or Electronics and/or Manufacturing. Students may elect to design their own course of study taken from the courses offered in these areas.
Mechanical Engineering
The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers courses of study that lead to the Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree. All those cool things you read about, like establishing colonies on the moon and Mars, 3-D printing of biomedical implants or building the next-generation aircraft and automobile engines? They're all happening right here in this department. Build medical devices. Create renewable energy systems—wind and solar. Design and test new aerospace engines and propulsion systems. Get your feet wet testing turbines in the Mississippi River. The possibilities are endless.
Civil Engineering
The Department of Civil Engineering will help you dive deep into big-picture thinking. Because around here, "good enough" isn't good enough. We don't want you to reduce pollution, we want you to reduce pollution and improve roadways at the same time. Right now, we're designing structures to withstand natural disasters and save countless lives. This department offers graduate-level courses leading to the Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering. Concentrations include Environmental Engineering, Engineering Seismology, Geotechnical Engineering, Structural Engineering, Transportation Engineering, and Water Resources Engineering. You may also pursue a degree with No Concentration.
Electrical and Computer Engineering
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering puts you on the front lines of the digital revolution. Design devices and develop sustainable energy. Find ways to identify someone more accurately than their fingerprint. We're even working on ways to capture brain waves and revolutionize the way we teach and learn. It's not science fiction. It's real, and it's happening right now. The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers graduate-level courses leading to the Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering degree. Concentrations include Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering. You may also pursue a degree with No Concentration.
