General Information

In order to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering, you must be admitted to major status before you can register for any upper level Biomedical Engineering classes. To be considered for admission to major status, you must have completed, as a minimum, the courses listed below with a grade point average of 3.00 or better. You may repeat technical courses only once, and the second grade received will be counted for the requirement. Actual admission is based on the composite GPA as calculated on this form. For the 2008-2009 academic year, students with composite GPAs of 3.25 or higher will be automatically admitted to major status; students with composite GPAs below 3.25 but above 3.00 will be placed on a waiting list and admitted as space permits at the end of the 2008 summer session. Target enrollment is 50 students.

Applications

To apply for admission to major status, submit the application form and an official copy of your University of Utah transcript to the Undergraduate Secretary any time during the academic year but no later than one day after the posting of grades for the 2008 summer session. Applications for admission will be considered as they are received. Students admitted to major status before the beginning of spring semester may start taking major classes that semester.
