The Integrated Ph.D. Program (IPP) provides the most direct route to a Ph.D. degree in the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences (GSBMS). In this program, students enter GSBMS without initially declaring an academic discipline. Graduates receive a Ph.D. in one of our existing programs – biochemistry & molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology & immunology, pathology, pharmacology, or physiology. 

Student Support

Qualifying students receive a financial aid package that includes a full tuition scholarship, stipend, medical and hospitalization insurance (annual premium paid by the GSBMS), and a waiver of the Student Health Services fee. Be advised, due to funding limitations and budgetary restraints for international travel, the GSBMS will only accept applications to the PhD program from international students if they are currently undergraduate or graduate students in the U.S. with an F1 visa.

Ph.D. Degree Timeline

Read about Tim's journey to research at NYMC  and  hear what our alumni have to say about our Ph.D. program.  

Milestones and Student Progress

• Advisors and committees Upon entry to the program, each student is assigned a first-year Academic Advisor who will (a) provide guidance with regard to GSBMS regulations and procedures, (b) advise the student on course and rotation selection, and (c) monitor the student's progress in the program. Each first-year research rotation will have a Rotation Advisor (a faculty member hosting a student in their laboratory for the period of that rotation). Once the student has declared a program, the Principal Investigator of the research laboratory the student has entered becomes the student’s Dissertation Advisor. The Program Director for the specific program the student has entered becomes the Academic Advisor, with special emphasis on course selection and guidance related to GSBMS program requirements and procedures. The Dissertation Advisor and the student establish the Advisory Committee in consultation with the Program Director. Once the student is ready to present a dissertation proposal, usually in the third year, the membership of the Advisory Committee may be modified to form the Dissertation Committee. Students are also encouraged to seek additional advice from other faculty on a one-to-one basis.
• Declaration of discipline (selection of academic program) Students declare their program at the beginning of the second year, by an announced date. Programs have the option to deny the student’s entry, which would force the student to declare a second choice. If no match can be made, the student will be dismissed from the Ph.D. program. According to this schedule, the student will have been admitted to a specific program by the Fall term of the second year, thus allowing an appropriate selection of courses for that term.
• Selection of dissertation research advisor This choice is normally made at the same time as the declaration of program, and is subject to the agreement of the proposed dissertation sponsor. In special circumstances, the selection of a dissertation sponsor may be delayed by one academic term. If the student has not yet selected a Dissertation Advisor, the first-year Academic Advisor will continue to serve on a temporary basis until the student finds a Dissertation Advisor.
• Qualifying (comprehensive) examination During the summer at the end of the second year, all students sit for the Ph.D. Qualifying Examination. In special circumstances, the exam for a particular student may be delayed for a short time. The student will be evaluated on his/her performance on the exam and on an assessment of his/her potential to conduct independent research. Passing the exam indicates that the student is prepared to undertake a doctoral dissertation and, therefore, will qualify the student for doctoral candidacy. Students who fail the qualifying exam on their first attempt may be allowed one additional attempt to pass the exam. Students who do not pass the qualifying exam will be dismissed from the Ph.D. program, but will be eligible to receive a Master’s degree, providing the appropriate requirements for that degree are fulfilled. Each exam will be constructed by the faculty of the student’s specific program, but the format will conform to standards set by the Graduate School. The format shall include both written and oral components. The student will be examined on his or her knowledge of the core concepts of the chosen discipline, including the core biomedical concepts taught in the first year. The student should also demonstrate an ability to think logically and critically, and demonstrate an understanding of how the scientific method may be used to address unanswered questions in his/her field.
• Formation of a dissertation committee Once the student is ready to present a dissertation proposal (during the Fall term of the third year – i.e., shortly after passing the Qualifying Exam), the second-year Advisory Committee becomes the Dissertation Committee. Members of the Advisory Committee can be replaced if their expertise is not relevant to the student’s dissertation project. The Dissertation Advisory Committee should consist of 4-5 graduate NYMC faculty members from different programs/departments. They should be selected based on their scientific expertise, which must be relevant to the student's dissertation project rather than department/program affiliation. One external member who is not a part of NYMC or GSBMS faculty can be a member of the Dissertation Committee upon approval of the Dissertation Advisor and the Program Director. The Dissertation Advisory Committee should meet at least two times per year to assess the student’s overall progress and to ensure timely defense and graduation of the student. Once the student is ready to present a dissertation proposal, the Dissertation Advisory Committee will be the recipient of the student’s final thesis.
• Presentation of a formal dissertation proposal Each student shall present to his/her dissertation committee an acceptable formal research proposal by the end of the Spring term of the third year.
• Dissertation progress reports The student shall present progress reports to the dissertation committee at every meeting. At some point, the committee shall decide that sufficient data have been collected and will authorize the student to prepare the dissertation itself.
• Dissertation defense The student shall provide the committee with a final draft of the dissertation at least two weeks in advance of a public defense of the dissertation. Because a public presentation and defense of the dissertation research is an academic tradition and a Graduate School requirement, the dean must approve all proposed dissertation defense dates.

Biomedical Engineering

College of engineering, ph.d. program.

Formal coursework for a Ph.D. must cover at least three out of five core areas: physiology and cellular/molecular biology, biomaterials and tissue engineering, biomechanics, biomedical imaging and bioinformatics, and neuroengineering; Each of these core courses must be of 9 units or more. Graduate level introductory courses in each core area are available for students who are unfamiliar with the subject area. Aside from the core area requirement, considerable flexibility is allowed in the selection of courses to adapt to diverse interests, educational backgrounds, and career plans. Students are also allowed to take a certain number of upper-level undergraduate courses to broaden their background.

Students start thesis research within a few weeks of matriculation. Research during the first year defines the theme for the Ph.D. Qualifying Examination at the beginning of the second year. The purpose of the Qualifying Examination is to ensure that the student is sufficiently prepared and motivated to complete Ph.D. thesis research. Students submit a research document and take an oral examination with questions centered around the subject of the document. The questions may range from fundamental knowledge, prior research, to future prospect. By passing the Qualifying Examination, the student is formally accepted as a Ph.D. candidate.

The ensuing Ph.D. research must demonstrate the student’s ability to conduct an original, coherent, and independent investigation, to abstract principles, and to interpret the results in a logical manner. The student must pass a Ph.D. Proposal Examination, designed to assess the plan for completing the Ph.D. research, within the first three years of residence. Ph.D. dissertation and oral defense must be completed within six years of passing the Ph.D. Qualifying Examination.

Other Requirements

All students are required to take Biomedical Engineering Seminar (42-701) or (42-801) during each semester of residence. All Ph.D. students must also complete three semesters of Teaching Assistantship. Detailed requirements are described in the Graduate Student Handbook.

• Program Handbook
• Frequently Asked Questions
• M.S. Program

Direct Entry

Students entering the Ph.D. program without an M.S. degree are classified as Direct Entry. Direct Entry students must satisfactorily complete at least 84 units of coursework, among which at most 21 units may be advanced undergraduate courses. Most Direct Entry students graduate within 4-5 years of full-time study.

Advanced Entry

Qualified candidates with an approved M.S. degree may be accepted into the Advanced Entry Ph.D. program. Advanced Entry students are required to complete 42 units of coursework, among which at most 9 units may be advanced undergraduate courses. Advanced Entry students are expected to devote most of the effort to research starting the first year. Many of them are able to graduate in no more than 4 years.

The Department of Biomedical Engineering participates in a combined M.D.-Ph.D. Program with the  University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine,  to offer M.D. degree from the University of Pittsburgh and Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University. The aim is to allow physician-engineers to blend research and clinical perspectives in treating patients.

Prospective students should apply directly to the  University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine , indicating an interest in the Ph.D. Program in Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. During the first semester of the second year of medical school, the student should submit an application to the Ph.D. program, which may include supporting documents previously submitted to the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.

Students formally enter the Ph.D. program after completing their second year of medical school, although research may start as soon as the summer before the first semester of medical school and during the subsequent two summer semesters. This allows the student to gain a total of six months of research before officially entering the Ph.D. program.

Ph.D. requirements are similar to those for the Advanced Entry Ph.D. program except that there are no specific core course requirements, such that students may tailor biomedical engineering -relevant courses in consultation with the advisor. Completion of the Ph.D. program is targeted at 3-4 years.  The student then returns to the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine to completes the last two years of M.D. training.

BME PhD Admission and Completion

As a top ranked graduate school, CMU is selective in its PhD admissions. Once admitted, CMU BME has a regular PhD review process that tracks student progress and ensures supportive mentorship. As a result, the large majority of our students complete their PhD.

BME PhD Financial Support

All full time Ph.D. students accepted through the normal application process are provided continued support for the duration specified in the admission offer letter, subject to successful progress evaluated each semester, including tuition, fees and a competitive stipend.

Much of the efficiency of the Ph.D. Program, where most students graduate within 5 years, may be attributed to the early start of research and the rigorous system of performance assessment held...

Students start thesis research within a few weeks of matriculation. Research during the first year also defines the theme for the Ph.D. Qualifying Examination at the beginning of the second year.
