Programme Structure

Curriculum:

In addition to being surrounded by more than 150 medical and bioscience companies in Cleveland, you’ll be in the center of a vibrant medical community—with Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals and Louis Stokes VA Medical Center just steps away from campus, and MetroHealth Medical Center a short drive. Through our partnerships, you’ll get ample opportunities for hands-on research collaborations.

You’ll also be a part of one of the largest biomedical engineering enterprises in the world, thanks to our Biomedical Engineering Alliance, a partnership between Cleveland Clinic and CWRU through which you can perform research alongside faculty of CWRU’s medical and engineering schools or scientists at Cleveland Clinic.
