生物工程哲学博士

佛蒙特大学（University of Vermont）提供跨学科生物工程计划的哲学博士学位。该计划是工程与数学学院（CEMS）与医学院（COM）的桥梁。佛蒙特大学的生物工程研究专注于定量工程分析在生物系统研究中的应用。该计划的目标是开发和实施用于描述，分析和预测复杂生物系统在多个尺度上的行为的计算和实验工程方法。我们考虑的范围从分子水平到细胞，组织，器官，生物和种群水平。重点放在了解生化，生物力学和/或其他生物物理过程如何相互作用和影响这些不同水平的新兴特性上。哲学博士学位的候选人必须完成必修课程的13
The University of Vermont offers a Doctor of Philosophy degree in the interdisciplinary Bioengineering Program. The program bridges faculty from the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences (CEMS) and College of Medicine (COM). Bioengineering research at the University of Vermont focuses on the application of quantitative engineering analysis to the study of biological systems. The goal of this program is the development and implementation of computational and experimental engineering approaches for describing, analyzing, and predicting the behavior of complex biological systems at multiple scales. We consider scales ranging from the molecular level to the cell, tissue, organ, organism, and population levels. Emphasis is placed on understanding how biochemical, biomechanical and/or other biophysical processes interact and influence emergent properties at these different levels. Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy must complete thirteen graduate credits of required courses (advanced bioengineering systems, complex systems, human physiology and pharmacology or equivalent, and an advanced mathematics or statistics course) plus at least seventeen credits of approved technical electives. In addition, the candidate must complete a teaching requirement, pass a comprehensive examination, complete up to forty-five credits of dissertation research, and pass a final oral examination. The degree of Doctor of Philosophy requires a minimum of seventy-five credits earned.
