The Graduate School of Biomedical Science & Engineering (GSBSE) offers a doctoral degree in Biomedical Engineering. The GSBSE contributes to learning and discovery on the ''emerging frontier'' of the biological, physical, clinical, and behavioral sciences, preparing new faculty, training scientists and engineers, and furthering Maine's biotechnology and biomedical infrastructure. Students admitted to the GSBSE can choose a dissertation mentor from over 150 faculty located at any one of these world-class research and educational institutions. Student access to courses, as well as faculty, is achieved through a high-end videoconferencing system. Genetics used to mean single-gene research. There's now an entire genome to investigate and comprehend, and researchers are using sophisticated new techniques to unravel its complexities.
