BME Master Program

Dear Student, to ensure timely graduation and avoid registration issues, please follow these instructions:
  1. The typical study program for Master's students in the Biomedical Engineering Program is distributed over 4 semesters as a study plan.
  2. Required courses are required of all students in the program, elective courses (often referred to as open or free electives) are optional for students, and selected elective courses are those for which students must take one or more courses from a specified group.
  3. The student can start the thesis after completion of 50% of the required hours, this will help to graduate on time. Please do not start the thesis after completion of all courses this will lead to graduation in 3 or 4 years.
  4. As per the KAU guidelines (51-1), students are required to publish at least one paper in peer-reviewed journals.
  5. The student can register for the elective course EE690 Special Topics in Electrical Engineering from the department.
  6. Before starting the semester, students are advised to review the course syllabus.
  7. The electives course would be offered by the coordinator according to the student's desire, so the students should contact the coordinator a semester ahead.
  8. The students must follow the study plan for each semester.
  9. The course will be offered based on a study plan only with a scheduled time as the previous semester, it cannot be changed.
  10. For any problem with registration please contact the academic advisors.
