Guide to Graduate Study in Area VII: Advice on Curriculum Planning
Undergraduate Preparation
It is difficult to specify a list of undergraduate subjects that would provide a suitable background for all students interested in Bioelectrical Engineering—their diversity of interests is large. Undergraduate students interested in Bioelectrical Engineering should, therefore, consult appropriate faculty members for individual guidance. For many students, however, a desirable preparation would consist of the curriculum described under the Bioelectrical Engineering concentration in the MIT Bulletin, Courses and Degree Programs.
Many students may wish to include in their program additional subjects related to living systems (see Sec. III). Section II-B lists some of these subjects, organized into three fields of specialization. Students who may consider applying to medical school* at some point in their academic career may need to consider other subjects as well. Students interested in entrance requirements for medical school should consult with the Premedical Advisory Committee in the Pre-professional Advising and Education Office (12-185). A student may also wish to consider subjects offered under the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology.
