BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING SCIENCES MAJOR<br />

The biomedical engineering sciences major is <strong>of</strong>fered to students interested in either<br />

medical school or graduate studies in biomedical engineering. Faculty from <strong>Thayer</strong><br />

<strong>School</strong> and <strong>Dartmouth</strong> Medical <strong>School</strong> jointly advise the research projects. <strong>Dartmouth</strong><br />

Medical <strong>School</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers an opportunity for accomplished biomedical engineering sciences<br />

majors to apply for early admission to the <strong>Dartmouth</strong> Medical <strong>School</strong> through the<br />

Early Assurance Program. For more information, please consult the <strong>Thayer</strong> website at:<br />
