View the degree requirements in the handbook.
Students typically complete the Ph.D. degree requirements in three to five years. Early in the program, students focus on course-work that enhances their knowledge as they prepare to conduct research.
Within one year, students must pass the departmental qualifying exam, an oral exam that tests research skills and knowledge of a core mechanical engineering subject area.
Student research forms the core of the Ph.D. program. Research involves active student-directed inquiry into an engineering problem, culminating in a written thesis and oral defense.
The majority of full-time Ph.D. students accepted through the standard application process receive fellowships that cover full tuition, the technology fee, and a stipend for living expenses for up to five years, as long as sufficient progress is made toward degree completion. These awards are sufficient to cover all expenses for the year (including summers). Students are required to pay for health insurance, the transportation fee, the activity fee, books, and course supplies. Off-campus housing is available within walking distance of campus. At least one year of residency is required for the Ph.D. We offer two ways to enter the Ph.D. program.
The advanced entry Ph.D. is for students with an M.S. in an engineering discipline or equivalent field.
The direct Ph.D. is for students entering the program with a B.S. in an engineering discipline or equivalent field.
For a comprehensive overview of the programs, including degree requirements, please consult the most recent handbook

By the end of their first semester, each student should complete a Program of Study form listing the courses they plan to take to complete the requirements for their program. The form needs to be filed with the SSE Graduate Office and can be updated annually as needed.
The qualifying examination is intended to test the student's fundamental knowledge in biomedical engineering and may be taken no more than twice. If a student is not able to pass this examination after exhausting all of the allowed chances, they could be transferred to the MS degree program or choose to leave the graduate program.
There are both written and oral qualifying exam options as described in the BME graduate handbook. The intent of the written examination format is to allow doctoral students to qualify for pursuit of doctoral studies by demonstrating their PhD-level knowledge in three topics related to their research project. The intent of the oral examination format is to allow a doctoral student to qualify for pursuit of doctoral studies through evaluation of their research writings (a first/co-first author manuscript, which could be published, accepted, submitted or in preparation), and evaluation of their responses during a single oral exam conducted after review of the writings. To successfully qualify, students must demonstrate PhD-level knowledge in three identified topical areas and the research writings submitted by the student should represent significant potential for scholarly research at the doctoral level. Each topical area selected by the student for consideration in this examination format must be related to the content of the research writings submitted by the student.
The qualifying exam (in either written or oral format) must be completed by the end of the second year of the Ph.D. program. Both written and oral qualifiers need to be taken in a single day in either early summer (June) or winter (January). Students are responsible for scheduling their qualifying exam in consultation with their PhD advisor. In the case of failure for the first attempt, written feedback will be provided that can be used by the student as guidance in their second and last attempt at this examination.
Each student will choose 3 courses for their qualifying exam (for both written and oral format), where at least one of the selected topics must be from the list of foundational BME courses. The faculty conducting the Qualifying Exam will consist of the instructors of the selected courses. In the event that course instructors have changed, a student will have the option of nominating either the current or past course instructor to provide the examination (subject to approval by the BME Graduate Program Coordinator). Three examiners must be selected for each Qualifying exam – one per course topic. For the research writing exam format, if two courses taught by the same instructor are chosen for the exam, the instructor of those courses must nominate (subject to approval by the BME Graduate Program Coordinator) an alternate instructor to provide the exam for one of the courses. If the student’s graduate advisor is not an instructor for any of the selected courses, the advisor can be present at the oral exam, but will not be an evaluator.
The examining committee for the proposal examination consists of the student’s Guidance Committee members. As part of the proposal, students are required to submit a written document that describes the research project. The document should be submitted 2 weeks prior to the proposal defense. The document should contain enough introductory material to inform the proposal examination committee about the underlying background of the project. The document should also contain additional logically arranged sections, such as sections on objectives, experimental and theoretical methods, results, conclusions, and timelines for finishing the dissertation.
The Dissertation Proposal will be presented orally in a seminar lasting 20 to 40 minutes. Following the seminar, the Guidance Committee conducts an oral examination of the student within the area of the proposed research. Students should take this examination after passing the oral qualifying examination and after all coursework has been completed (typically after 2.5 years in the program). If a student does not pass the proposal examination on their first attempt, a second and final attempt shall occur within one additional semester.
Students who pass the qualifying and dissertation proposal examinations become Ph.D. candidates. A student must be admitted to candidacy at least two full sequential semesters before the date on which the doctorate degree will be conferred.
The dissertation defense is conducted by the student’s Guidance Committee. In the event that not all of the members who served on the proposal examination are available to serve on the dissertation defense committee, substitutions may be made. However, the final makeup of the dissertation defense committee must in all cases consist of at least 3 faculty members from the BME program and at least 1 person from outside the program. The minimum members required is 5.
As part of the dissertation defense, students are required to submit a written dissertation that describes the resuts from the research project. The student should consult the Formatting Guide for Saint Louis University Graduate Education for details concerning the preparation and format of the Dissertation. The traditional dissertation format typically includes an introduction, a review of the literature, methodology, results, and discussion. In addition, the Department of Biomedical Engineering offers a “manuscript-style” format. This is similar to the non-traditional format described in the Office of Graduate Education’s dissertation formatting guide. If this option is used, the student will normally use the following format: Chapter 1 - Introduction; Chapter 2 - Manuscript #1; Chapter 3 - Manuscript #2; Chapter 4 - Manuscript #3; Chapter 5 - Conclusions and Future Work. With either format, the dissertation must be formatted in accordance with the regulations of Graduate Education. Once completed, the dissertation will be approved by the research mentor and a copy given to each member of the student’s Guidance Committee; the dissertation should be distributed two weeks before the public presentation (see below). The committee will evaluate the dissertation, make comments and suggest any necessary corrections or changes.
The dissertation defense will be presented orally in a public seminar lasting 30 to 45 minutes. The open forum is followed by a closed-door session, where the Guidance Committee conducts an oral examination of the student within the area of the conducted research. A 2-hour block should be reserved for the defense. The time and location of defense must be publicized two weeks in advance so that the defense can be attended by all interested persons.
The candidate may only take the final oral defense twice, and students who are not able to pass the defense in two attempts will not be awarded a doctoral degree.
Roadmaps are recommended semester-by-semester plans of study for programs and assume full-time enrollment unless otherwise noted.
Courses and milestones designated as critical (marked with !) must be completed in the semester listed to ensure a timely graduation. Transfer credit may change the roadmap.
This roadmap should not be used in the place of regular academic advising appointments. All students are encouraged to meet with their advisor/mentor each semester. Requirements, course availability and sequencing are subject to change.

Engineering is a rewarding field with a diverse range of potential career paths. Unfortunately, there’s a longstanding gap between the number of women and number of men in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields, and that gap is widest in engineering.
A late 2023 Gallup poll showed that only 24% of surveyed Gen Z women were interested in engineering careers, as compared to 52% of the Gen Z men surveyed. The same group of women showed more, though not equal, interest in technology and math and only exceeded men in interest in life and physical sciences.
What’s the explanation? Some possibilities are that these women don’t enjoy STEM, lack the self-confidence that they will succeed in such fields, or believe they won’t be treated equally on the job. The Gallup poll supports these theories. However, the poll also shows that the same women had less exposure to STEM topics during middle school and high school than men, apart from environmental science.
This poll data suggests that many women haven’t had the same encouragement to pursue STEM studies throughout their lives. This begs the question, might women show more interest in engineering, technology, math, and many science topics today if they received equal exposure to these subjects earlier on?
A workforce lacking diversity is a detriment to any field. It can hinder innovation and limit the talent pool. Yet women have made significant contributions to engineering, from 1930’s Hollywood legend Heddy Lamarr, who helped develop technology that prevented enemies from interfering with radio-guided torpedoes in World War II, to Mae Jemison, whose engineering accomplishments led NASA to choose her as the first Black woman to go to space.
Considering the unrealized potential associated with low engineering interest among women today, who knows what potential engineering innovations may never come to fruition?
If you’re a woman interested in engineering, we encourage you to pursue that interest further and consider a career in the field. When you join the ranks of other female engineers excelling in their field, you may even help lead the way for others who need the inspiration.
Most engineering careers begin with a Bachelor of Science. Once you’ve completed that degree, graduate studies can increase both your knowledge and professional advancement potential.
The University of Wisconsin–Madison offers online programs in some of today’s most popular engineering subfields, including:
All these 100% online programs offer the same flexibility to complete coursework on your own schedule from any location, distinguished and internationally renowned faculty from the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering and the Wisconsin Electric Machines and Power Electronics Consortium (WEMPEC) and small class sizes.

Ulugbek Kamilov, graduate students, develop method that could reduce errors in computational imaging
Deep learning models, such as those used in medical imaging to help detect disease or abnormalities, must be trained with a lot of data. However, often there isn’t enough data available to train these models, or the data is too diverse.
Ulugbek Kamilov, associate professor of computer science & engineering and of electrical & systems engineering in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, along with Shirin Shoushtari , Jiaming Liu and Edward Chandler , doctoral students in his group, have developed a method to get around this common problem in image reconstruction. The team will present the results of the research this month at the International Conference on Machine Learning in Vienna, Austria.
For example, MRI data used to train deep learning models could come from different vendors, hospitals, machines, patients or body parts imaged. A model trained on one type of data could introduce errors when applied on other data. To avoid those errors, the team adopted the widely used deep learning approach known as Plug-and-Play Priors, accounted for the shift in the data with which the model was trained and adapted the model to a new incoming set of data.
“With our method, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a lot of training data,” Shoushtari said. “Our method enables to adapt deep learning models using a small set of training data, no matter what hospital, what machine or what body parts the images come from.
“What is significant about the domain adaptation strategy is that we can reduce the errors we fact in imaging due to a limited set of data,” Shoushtari said. "This could help us apply deep learning to problems that were previously deemed impossible due to the data requirements.”
One proposed use for this method would be in acquiring data from MRI, which requires patients to lie still for long periods of time. Any movement by the patient leads to errors.
“We have considered acquiring the data from the MRI in a shorter time,” Shoushtari said. “While shorter scans typically lead to lower quality images, our method can be used to computationally increase image quality as if the patient was in the machine for a longer time. The key innovation in our new approach is that it requires only tens of images to adapt an existing MRI model to new data.”
The method is also applicable beyond radiology, and the team is collaborating with other colleagues to adopt the method to scientific imaging, microscopic imaging and other applications in which data can be represented as an image.
