Depth electives are all engineering, whether it be coursework or research. Nine hours of engineering depth elective hours are required. Up to six hours of research for credit (BMED 4699) will be allowed to count as BMED depth elective credit, see “Research” for additional information. Depth elective courses may be BME courses or from the list of approved courses from other majors, listed here on the BMED AO Canvas page.
A list of departmental BMED depth courses is below. The syllabi for these BME departmental depth courses is on the BMED AO Canvas page. Note that not all BME departmental courses are offered every semester. Few if any are offered in summer. Also, each semester several BMED Special Topics courses are offered, which typically are numbered starting with 48--, such as BMED 4803, 4813, 4823 or 4863. View the course schedule for that semester to see what Special Topics courses are offered that semester, or consult with your academic advisor.
