Online - Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering | West Lafayette & Indianapolis - Purdue University

As healthcare systems and technologies grow in scope and complexity, the demand for biomedical engineers is expected to rise. Careers in biomedical engineering are expected to grow by faster than average over the next decade according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Meet growing demand and distinguish yourself as an expert in the field with an online Master's in Biomedical Engineering (MSBME) from Purdue University.

Our award-winning and internationally recognized engineering programs are designed with professional students in mind. The flexibility of the MSBME will give you the opportunity to accomplish your educational goals and move forward in your career at the same time.

A high-quality engineering Master's degree with added convenience

Online students take the same rigorous and practical courses that on-campus MSBME students take. All courses are taught by our experienced biomedical engineering faculty. Online, asynchronous course delivery allows students to work at their own pace and study from anywhere in the world. A hybrid modality is also available for students looking to come to campus part time. The flexibility of this program makes it an ideal fit for engineering professionals looking to increase their skills and knowledge without disrupting their careers.

Students in the online MSBME Master's program will work closely with faculty and other students to build in-demand biomedical engineering skills that can be immediately applied to the field. Learning outcomes include:

• Develop a functional understanding of the design and development of biomedical products and processes at the systems level.
• Develop a practical understanding of the processes to ensure quality, testing, and approval of biomedical products.
• Demonstrate the ability to make well-reasoned ethical and socially responsible engineering decisions.
• Be able to clearly communicate, effectively negotiate, and strategically lead within a biomedical engineering project.

Students will be assessed via a combination of homework assignments, quizzes/tests, projects, and participation.

The cost of attending Purdue varies depending on where you choose to live, enrollment in a specific program or college, food and travel expenses, and other variables. The Office of the Bursar website shows estimated costs for the current aid year for students by semester and academic year. These amounts are used in determining a student’s estimated eligibility for financial aid. You can also use our tuition calculator to estimate tuition costs.

Eligible students may use VA education benefits toward tuition and fees. Coverage varies based on the student’s benefit type and eligibility, and additional provisions may apply to qualifying military-connected students. To ensure qualification for the VA Educational Benefit tuition rate, students should work closely with the Veteran and Military Student Success Center.
