Master in Ingegneria (M.Eng.) in Bioingegneria

Designed for those looking for a stepping stone to technical and managerial careers in the healthcare industry, our professional master’s degree program combines the strengths of The Grainger College of Engineering and the Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Graduates are equipped with bioengineering technical skills and big-picture business perspective—trained to find creative solutions to complex, multi-level systems problems.

The Bioinstrumentation concentration focuses on medical imaging devices, and trains engineers to be industry leaders by combining rigorous graduate-level engineering coursework with fundamental business training on issues that confront professionals who develop products for biomedical imaging, medical diagnostics, genomics, and tools used in life science research.

The general bioengineering concentration is designed to bridge the skills gap between general bioengineering concepts and business acumen through coursework and an applied consulting project. The in-depth technical training combined with the core business classes required will develop well-rounded professionals entering the healthcare industry.

Both concentrations are offered on-campus in Urbana-Champaign or online. The online M.Eng. in Bioengineering program is the exact same degree awarded to students who complete the on-campus program.
