国际学生入学条件
Students applying from a master's degree program must have a grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 or higher on work beyond the B.S. degree. BSEE and BSCPE applicants must have a degree from an institution of higher learning that is recognized by the ECE department and a GPA of at least 3.5 on the last 60 credit hours of undergraduate work.
Applicants must submit to the Graduate School the same application materials required for M.S. applicants, plus a one- or two-page discussion of career goals and proposed areas of study.
Completed applications are routed to faculty in the interest area most closely aligned with the applicant's desired field of specialization. Faculty in the interest area then make recommendations to the Admissions Director or Graduate Administrative Committee regarding admission into the Ph.D. program and possible financial support.
The complete application includes
Virginia Tech Graduate School on-line application form, nonrefundable application fee $75.00.
An up-to-date, electronic copy of all official transcript(s) must be submitted with your on-line application. Please do not mail your official transcript(s) to the Graduate School until you have received an offer of admission from Virginia Tech. (Note that the ECE department does not require an official copy of your transcript(s).
Three (3) letters of recommendation.
Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
This is not required for Virginia Tech undergraduate students earning a B.S. degree in ECE at Virginia Tech with a GPA of 3.5 or higher in their last 60 hours.
TOEFL or IELTS exam for applicants earning undergraduate or graduate degrees from non-English institutions.
A Resume and a Statement of Purpose submitted with the on-line application.
For admission in Fall 2019, we expect a minimum TOEFL score of 90 (IBT) or IELTS score of 6.5 for admission. Further, TOEFL scores of 20 or greater in Listening, Writing, Speaking, and Reading subsections are required. A minimum TOEFL score of 550 on the paper-based test (PBT).Some departments may require higher minimum scores.

课程简介
系统生物学是一种跨学科和数据驱动的生物医学方法,正在将生物医学从疾病驱动和反应性转变为健康驱动和预测性。ECE研究人员正在应用计算生物信息学,生物成像和数学模型来了解与生物过程相关的分子调控和信号通路网络。ECE研究人员正在与生物学家合作建立数学模型,以预测药物对癌细胞的影响。当使用药物疗法剥夺乳腺癌细胞的雌激素时,其中一些细胞会死亡,但其他细胞最终将变得独立于雌激素(耐药)并开始再次生长。我们建立了一个显示细胞如何从雌激素敏感性转变为雌激素独立性的模型。该模型用于设计药物治疗的最佳周期,该周期可最大程度
Systems biology, an interdisciplinary and data-driven approach to biomedicine, is increasingly transforming biomedicine from disease-driven and reactive to health-driven and predictive. ECE researchers are applying computational bioinformatics, bioimaging, and mathematical modeling to understand the molecular regulatory and signaling pathway networks associated with biological processes. ECE researchers are working with biologists to build mathematical models to predict the impact of drugs on cancer cells. When using drug therapy to deprive breast cancer cells of estrogen, some of the cells die, but others eventually become independent of estrogen (drug resistant) and begin to grow again. We built a model that shows how cells transition from estrogen sensitivity to estrogen independence. The model was used to design an optimal cycle of drug therapy that minimizes the growth of the cancer while preventing drug resistance.
