Part 1: General Information

Updated 2019-02-19 9

1. The Profession of Bioengineering Bioengineering is an exciting and diverse profession with a tremendous range of occupations and opportunities; our general technical background, combined with deep understanding of chemistry and biology enables our graduates to work effectively in and to adapt quickly to many different fields. The bioengineer is an expert at combining engineering expertise and knowledge of biochemical systems to address key challenges in health and the environment, sustainability, and processing. Our teaching and research programs reflect these challenges through our two degree programs (biomedical engineering and biological engineering), five technical expertise tracks (the biomaterials, bioinformatics, biomechanics, and biomedical imaging & instrumentation tracks in biomedical engineering and the bioprocess engineering and bioenvironmental engineering tracks in biological engineering), and our pre-medicine track. Our department is accredited through the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), which provides accreditation for both undergraduate degree programs. The department also offers graduate programs - both M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in biological engineering. Our department also offers an accelerated, 5-year B.S. / M.S. program (otherwise known as the Integrated Masters Program). Our biomedical research focuses on disease detection and treatment, and involves research in biosensing, biophotonics and bioimaging, biomechanics, biomaterials, and bioinformatics. Our research in bioprocess engineering emphasizes bioresource use, including biological material-based products, food engineering, and food safety. Lastly, our research in the bioenvironmental area emphasizes water quality issues, including wastewater treatment, bioremediation, precision agriculture, and nonpoint source pollution. Our bioengineers are employed in a wide variety of industries and companies that span manufacturing, law, management, sales, medicine, regulatory agencies, hospitals, research facilities of companies, governments, and academic / medical institutions, consulting firms, etc. We encourage our students to explore the full range of job opportunities available to them; a degree in biomedical or biological engineering from the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Missouri is merely the beginning of a lifetime of solving problems that matter (and getting paid to do it).

2. Bioengineering Program History The Department of Biomedical, Biological & Chemical Engineering (BBCE) and its degree programs in Bioengineering (BE) were developed by building on the strengths and infrastructure of the agricultural engineering (AE) degree program, which was offered at MU for nearly 90 years and was continuously accredited by ABET or its antecedent (ECPD) for most of its history. The biological engineering degree program was officially approved by the University of Missouri and by the State of Missouri in 1996. From the early 1970s, the AE degree program gradually became more and more biologically-oriented. Over a period, seven faculty members (including one biologist) with substantial biological background joined the department and brought expertise in bioprocess engineering and bioenvironmental engineering. In the early 1990s, the AE faculty began to work towards a biological engineering degree program. After the official approval of the new program in 1996, the first biological engineering degree freshman class entered the program in the

Updated 2019-02-19 10

Fall of 1997 and the AE program was gradually phased out. The first biological engineering major (a transfer student) completed her degree in December 1997. In 2016, the department submitted a proposal for the new Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering. The degree program was approved in 2018. We developed both undergraduate degree programs based on the philosophy that there is a common set of bioengineering principles that can be applied across the many different technical expertise areas. The curriculum is thus structured with a set of core required courses plus technical electives in each of the options. The availability of these options and the flexibility to allow changes have been very well-received by students. BE is a strong research department. The funded research, faculty entrepreneurship, together with support from the College of Engineering (CoE), School of Medicine, and the College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources (CAFNR), have provided undergraduate students opportunities for research and creativity. Typically, one third to one half of our students participate in research. These creative activities greatly broaden their educational experiences at MU. In 2018, the Bioengineering and Chemical Engineering departments merged to form the Department of Biomedical, Biological, and Chemical Engineering.

3. Commitment to Excellence

The Department of Biomedical, Biological & Chemical Engineering (BBCE) strives to promote academic excellence in our research, teaching, and service missions. We recognize that excellence in these areas happens only in diverse and inclusive environments. At its core, engineering innovation flourishes from the fusion of different perspectives, which are inherently linked to the composition of our academic community of students, staff, and faculty. We embrace the evidence that a diverse scholarly community stimulates scientific innovation and educational excellence.

Therefore, we are committed to becoming a scholarly community in which all participants feel equally welcome and encouraged to contribute. This commitment is reflected in our goal of increasing the participation of underrepresented groups in our department at all levels.

The Department is committed to:

1. Building an inclusive, unbiased, and prejudice-free environment that

- values, respects, and welcomes all individuals with their diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. Because of the historic and current situations, we are in particular concerned about issues of race, gender, and sexual orientation.*

- provides an environment for all individuals, including those from underrepresented groups, to excel in their academic and professional development

2. Providing a community in which all its members (i.e., students, staff, and faculty)

- are expected to respectfully interact with all faculty, staff, students, and the public.

- recognize the importance of having different perspectives in the classroom and beyond, which is fostered by having a diverse population of students, staff, and faculty.

3. Further increasing the diversity of our students, staff, and faculty by recruiting and retaining members of underrepresented groups, particularly those underrepresented in our college and nationwide.

Updated 2019-02-19 11

Our commitment requires that all students, staff, and faculty actively promote an inclusive environment in which all members of the community and visitors feel welcome. As individuals we strive to recognize our implicit biases and work actively to minimize their influence on our interactions, opinions, and decisions. Depending on our roles in the department, we have different avenues and responsibilities to foster inclusiveness:

As faculty, we are committed to:

- being role models for promoting diversity and being respectful and inclusive in our interactions with all members of the department, the university community, and the public;

- developing teaching and mentoring practices that foster inclusiveness and diverse experiences, promoting equal participation of all groups; and

- continually revising our teaching methods to avoid approaches that can inadvertently hamper the success of students.

As staff, we are committed to:

- developing practices and policies that foster inclusiveness and diverse experiences, promoting equal participation of all groups;

- appreciating diverse experiences as opportunities for personal and professional growth; and

- welcoming opportunities for professional development, including those addressing diversity and inclusiveness in our workforce and society.

As students, we are committed to:

- being respectful of others in the community, such as peers, faculty, and staff, regardless of their backgrounds;

- appreciating the opportunity to interact with people of different backgrounds;

- utilizing diverse experiences as opportunities for personal and intellectual growth; and

- being receptive to new ideas and opinions.

The Department aspires to become a model for the appreciation, enhancement, and implementation of diversity and inclusion both at MU and within the broader academic community. Broadening participation in engineering and generating an inclusive and diverse atmosphere will make our society better and is our social responsibility.

*without disregarding other dimensions of diversity, such as gender identity, ethnic, socioeconomic, and national backgrounds, age, religious affiliation, physical abilities, learning disabilities, family and parental status, and veteran status.

4. Bioengineering Facilities The Agricultural Engineering Building (AEB) houses classrooms, computer laboratories, research and teaching laboratories, and departmental and staff offices. Due to BBCE’s unique placement within both CAFNR and CoE, BBCE occupies space within traditionally CAFNR buildings, in addition to Lafferre Hall, and close to the School of Medicine and School of Veterinary Medicine. This makes interacting with our partner academic units significantly easier.

4.1. Department Administration The Bioengineering programs’ administrative offices are located in 215 AEB. The administrative office telephone number is 573.882.2369.

Updated 2019-02-19 12

4.2. Bioengineering Student Study Spaces You have a place to study in the student lounge areas of AEB: outside AEB 105, in the M.M. Jones Lounge, and in the 2nd floor atrium above the lobby, the J.C. Wooley Gallery.

4.3. Computer Labs and Work Spaces In addition to the computing facilities in Lafferre Hall, BE has its own facilities in 106 AEB; this room is reserved for classes several hours during the week. The available computer laboratories on campus may be found at: https://doit.missouri.edu/services/computer-lab/. Additionally, campus offers software remotely through SoftwareAnywhere: https://doit.missouri.edu/services/software/software-anywhere/.

5. Release of Student Information The department routinely receives requests from graduate, medical, and professional schools to provide names of potential candidates to aid them in their recruitment. We will provide such lists using directory information, unless you request that we not include you in such releases. We do not release individual GPA information unless the student has authorized the organization to request it. You may request exclusion by setting your information release preferences in myZou.

6. Advising http://engineering.missouri.edu/advising/ Academic advising is an intentional, collaborative relationship based on trust and mutual respect. This relationship promotes the student’s development of competence, autonomy, and sound decision-making skills. The goal of academic advising is an individualized, academic experience for each student developed through a mentoring relationship. The primary point of contact for most advising questions will be your academic adviser. The academic advising staff will help you with the class registration process; Degree Audit corrections; answering questions about MU, the College of Engineering, and departmental policies and procedures; handling class scheduling difficulties, and guiding you to campus resources. See the Academic Calendar for registration advising dates. In addition to our advising team, you should visit with your Director of Undergraduate Studies to discuss academic progress and goals, select electives that support your plan of study, generate career goals, learn more about the profession of bioengineering, gain assistance in applying to graduate school, and for any other issue that requires faculty expertise. To help the advising team understand your goals at MU, and to ensure that you are fulfilling all graduation requirements, you are expected to complete your Plan of Study (POS) for a more intentional college experience. This should be done prior to meeting with your academic adviser to discuss your upper level elective plans. Degree Audits (DA) show your progress toward completing degree requirements and are available in myZou at any time to you or your academic adviser.

7. Academic Integrity It is imperative that society be able to rely upon the integrity of the members of our profession. At the university, faculty members expect you to follow high ethical standards in your academic work. Rules and procedures regarding actions that constitute academic dishonesty are clearly stated by the Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities (https://osrr.missouri.edu/academicintegrity/ ). These apply to all students. In addition, the bioengineering faculty have adopted the following policy statement, which applies in bioengineering courses. Faculty members expect that work submitted in your name be entirely your own work. You should not copy assignments, exams, quizzes, computer programs, etc. from others or allow copying of your work, including work from prior classes. It is usually permissible to discuss homework assignments with other students, unless your instructor specifies to the contrary, as long as your collaborators are stated on your homework. For examinations and quizzes, a stricter standard is imposed. For exams and quizzes the presumption, unless otherwise stated, is no discussion, no use of notes, no use of books or journals, and no use of work of others. If in a particular instance the instructor wishes to modify any part of the department policy, you will be so informed in writing.

8. Engineering Code of Ethics Engineering is an important and learned profession. As members of this profession, engineers are expected to exhibit the highest standards of honesty and integrity. Engineering has a direct and vital impact on the quality of life for all people. Accordingly, the services provided by engineers require honesty, impartiality, fairness, and equity, and must be dedicated to the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare. Engineers must perform under a standard of professional behavior that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct. Engineers, in the fulfillment of their professional duties, shall: Hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public. Perform services only in areas of their competence. Issue public statements only in an objective and truthful manner. Act for each employer or client as faithful agents or trustees. Avoid deceptive acts. Conduct themselves honorably, responsibly, ethically, and lawfully so as to enhance the honor,

reputation, and usefulness of the profession. (From the National Society of Professional Engineers) Please note that bioengineering, as a field, encompasses many professional societies, each of which has its own code of ethics that members must uphold to retain membership.

Part 2: Curriculum and Requirements –

B.S. Biomedical Engineering

Updated 2019-02-19 15

1. Objectives and Outcomes of the Program Our department mission is to educate biological engineers to integrate engineering and biological sciences in the contexts of health, sustainability and environmental stewardship, thus preparing them for productive careers characterized by continual professional growth.

1.1. Program Educational Objectives The structure of the curriculum provides both breadth and depth across the range of engineering and science topics consistent with the program educational objectives and student outcomes. The undergraduate program leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering, producing graduates who will, within 3-5 years:

1. Applying principles of engineering, biology, human physiology, chemistry, calculus-based physics, mathematics (through differential equations) and statistics;

2. Solving bio/biomedical engineering problems, including those associated with the interaction between living and non-living systems;

3. Analyzing, modeling, designing, and realizing bio/biomedical engineering devices, systems, components, or processes; and

4. Making measurements on and interpreting data from living systems.

1.2. Program Student Outcomes The biomedical engineering program should produce graduates that have:

1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics;

2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors;

3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences;

4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts;

5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives;

6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions;

7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies; and

8. an ability to integrate engineering and biological sciences to develop systems and processes for improved health, bio-resource utilization, and environmental protection.

1.3. Curriculum Alignment with Program Educational Objectives To show proficiency in engineering analysis, design and development (Objective 1), the curriculum requires 45 credit hours of engineering courses on top of a strong foundation (30 credit hours) in math, physics, chemistry and biological sciences. The fundamental engineering courses give student skills to analyze a system from a thermodynamic, mechanical, transport, electrical, or biochemical perspective. Lab exercises in science and engineering courses are designed to enhance these skills by connecting the theories with the real world. Major design experiences are provided in both BME

Updated 2019-02-19 16

4980W Biological Engineering Design I and BME 4380 Applied Electronic Instrumentation, where students carry out design projects under various constraints. To ensure that graduates can interact effectively with life science and other professionals (Objective 2), 49 credit hours of basic sciences are required. This course work includes physics, general chemistry, organic chemistry, basic biological sciences and a selection of more advanced biological and related sciences. The general education and writing-intensive course requirements are designed to improve graduates’ communication skills and abilities to interact with other professionals. To leverage principles of biological and engineering sciences for the design and development of innovative systems (Objective 3), the curriculum has the following two important features. First, in addition to a strong physical science background, 13 credit hours (or more) of biological and related sciences are required to give students a strong base in biosciences. Second, most BE courses are designed with integration of biological and engineering sciences as a goal. In particular, this is a major objective for a number of the required BME courses including BME 2180, 3180, 4380, 4980W, and quite a number of elective BME courses. For graduates to demonstrate leadership and professionalism as they continually add value to their chosen field of endeavor (Objective 4), course work and co-curricular activities are designed to help students carry these qualities to their jobs and careers. In BME 2000 Professional Development in Engineering, about one-third of the semester is dedicated to professionalism and ethics to provide a base for other course work and experience. The breadth of our curriculum and the general education requirements give graduates not only a broad education to understand the impact of engineering solutions but also the ability for continual learning. Professionalism and engineering ethics are included in other courses, such as BME 3170 Biomaterials. We strongly encourage and help students to become active in the large and growing numbers of student professional organizations. We also provide support for students to interact with professionals from industry and other professions through student-organized activities. The breadth and depth of the BE curriculum give graduates an edge to succeed in advanced studies in engineering, medicine or other fields (Objective 5). Besides graduate study opportunities in biological and other engineering disciplines, the curriculum is designed with built-in flexibilities in the sciences to satisfy pre-med and pre-vet requirements. We work with the Honors College to advise pre-med students with a pre-med version of the study plan that is available for them. Ample research opportunities allow students to gain an understanding of research and graduate school during their undergraduate years. One-third to one-half of the graduating BE seniors have participated in undergraduate research mentored by bioengineering faculty.

2.11. Biomedical Engineering Flowcharts The general flowchart of the Biomedical Engineering curriculum, including the tracks, is shown in the figures below.

Figure 1. Sample flowchart for a BSBME degree. Note that each box designates which terms it is offered (F: fall, S: Spring, SS: Summer, O: online). This is a sample curriculum. Students who enter with AP or transfer credit in Calculus and Physics are encouraged to take the remaining classes in the sequence earlier, rather than later, as this greatly reduces the intensity of the course load during the student’s 3rd and 4th years. We note that if students do not enter with BIO_SC 1500 or the equivalent (AP Biology credit), we recommend moving ENGINR 1100 to Fall 2 and ENGINR 1110 to Spring 2 (or taking MAE 1100 in Fall 2) to accommodate the additional class in the schedule without going above 18 credits.

2.12. Completing your Plan of Study (POS) The purpose of planning your bioengineering degree is to allow you to determine what courses/programs/activities will help you meet your goals in a timely manner. On the bioengineering flowchart cross off courses that you already have completed and circle the courses in which you are currently enrolled. Complete the Plan of Study (POS) form (two table formats) on the next page by following the steps below: 1. Completely fill out the heading. 2. Identify credits that can be used to meet degree requirements that were earned before entering MU (transfer, AP, test out, etc.). Label this term as “TR” for transfer. 3. List any transfer course that needed to be evaluated in the “Approved Course Substitutions” with the MU course number that it was evaluated as being “equivalent to” or as a “substitute for” under the course title. 4. In the second table, list each term appropriately (e.g., “F17” for Fall 2017; “S18” for Spring 2018; “SS18” for Summer 2018). List all courses taken that term. Do this for each term through the current term. 5. In the second table, list courses that you plan to take for future terms, checking off each course on your flowcharts as you list it on the POS form, and filling in the first table under the requirement that the course will meet with the appropriate course number, name, and term. This will help you to account for each requirement. 6. Keep in mind/make sure:

A. Courses are available during the term that you have scheduled them (refer to the flowchart for terms offered) B. Credit loads for each semester are within acceptable limits (18 credits per semester, or 21 for Honors Program) C. All course prerequisites are satisfied D. All curriculum requirements for graduation are satisfied.

7. Discuss your POS with your advisor. As a reminder, here is a summary of graduation requirements: 127 credit hours minimum 56 - 57 credit hours of engineering courses

9 credit hours of Social and Behavioral Science, including economics AND American history or government, plus 9 credit hours of Humanities and/or Fine Arts

2.13. Professional Engineer (P.E.) License

Many, but not all, engineering jobs and firms require that their employees be licensed professional engineers (P.E.s). To become licensed, you must first pass the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, at which point you become an "Engineering Intern" by submitting the Verification of Licensure and Examination form at the NCEES website (https://verify.ncees.org/) to the appropriate state.

BE graduating seniors are strongly encouraged to take this exam during their final term of study, as it assures them that they are eligible for jobs requiring a PE license or a PE in progress. The examination is six hours in length, including a tutorial, breaks, the exam, and a brief survey at the conclusion. The FE examination is a closed-book exam. Supplied reference material will be electronic and available on the NCEES (www.ncees.org) website. Examinees will be allowed to bring and use NCEES approved calculators on the exam.

2.13.1. Fees

To apply for the exam, visit the NCEES website (http://ncees.org/engineering/#missouri). Candidates are required to pay NCEES a $175 fee using a credit card. The cost of the exam will be reimbursed by Bioengineering AFTER YOU TAKE THE EXAM. To obtain a reimbursement, you must provide the Director of Undergraduate Studies with the following forms:

(1) a printed copy of the webpage showing confirmation that you paid the fee to take the exam,

(2) the registration form, and

(3) your credit card statement showing payment.

2.13.2. Schedule of Examination Offerings

There are four testing windows for the examination each year; each window lasts two months, with a month between them. Examination appointments are available: January-February; April-May; July-August; and, October-November (i.e., the exam is not offered March, June, September, or December). There are NO filing deadlines. Study sessions will be provided during a semester by the College of Engineering to help you do your best. Candidates for an exam may take the exam only one time per testing window and no more than three times in a 12-month period.

Computer-based FE examinations are administered only at approved Pearson VUE testing centers. To schedule, visit the Pearson VUE website (https://home.pearsonvue.com/). To find a center: http://cbt.ncees.org/where-will-i-take-my-exam/. Columbia’s location is:

Pearson Professional Centers-Columbia MO

1700 East Pointe Drive, Suite 204

Columbia, Missouri 65201

2.14. Policies

2.14.1. Transfer Credits

1. By departmental policy, only transfer grades of “C” and higher are accepted for curriculum requirements. 2. A maximum of 65 credits from a 2-year school can be applied to degree requirements. 3. The last 32 credits of the degree program must be earned at MU. Exceptions may be granted in special cases. Speak with your adviser for more information.

https://verify.ncees.org/

http://ncees.org/engineering/#missouri

http://ncees.org/engineering/#missouri

https://home.pearsonvue.com/

Updated 2019-02-19 44

4. Transfer students with transfer credits in bioengineering core courses must earn at least 15 semester credits in MU courses in this category at the 3000-level or above to qualify for the B.S. degree in biological engineering.

2.14.2. Academic Standing

http://registrar.missouri.edu/policies-procedures/academic-standing.php http://engineering.missouri.edu/current-students/academic-probation-dismissal/ A student whose term and cumulative MU GPA are 2.0 or higher is in good academic standing. A

“term” is defined as a semester or summer session. Academic standing is evaluated each semester

(excluding summer) and is based on a student’s GPA in courses that are complete at the end of the

term. Incompletes and courses in progress are not considered in evaluating academic standing. A

student will be placed on academic probation if while in good academic standing the student has a

term GPA less than 2.0 but equal to or greater than 1.0. A student will be dismissed from the

College of Engineering if the student receives a term GPA of less than 1.0 or receives a term GPA of

less than 2.0 while on probation.

2.14.3. Graduation Requirements

http://commencement.missouri.edu/pre-graduation.php You are able to obtain a copy of your Degree Audit at any time through the Office of the University Registrar (http://registrar.missouri.edu/degree-audits/ ). You should check each semester to ensure that each course taken or transferred is properly applied to the correct curricular category. Ask your academic adviser to make any necessary corrections to your Degree Audit to ensure everything is correct by the semester preceding your expected term of graduation.

2.14.4. Satisfactory / Unsatisfactory Grading System

http://registrar.missouri.edu/policies-procedures/grading-options.php Courses completed with a grade of S may constitute no more than 20 percent of the total credits for the baccalaureate degree. Students cannot elect to enroll in more than one course on an S/U basis in a given semester. This excludes courses taught only with the S/U grading system. Courses completed with a grade of S may be accepted in an area of concentration only with the prior approval of the academic adviser. S/U credits can be applied toward requirements for a B.S. degree in bioengineering only if the course is specified in the curriculum as a behavioral science / social science or humanities / fine arts elective, or is a course not used in the degree program. Satisfactory / Unsatisfactory credits are not acceptable for technical elective courses or bioengineering core courses except for BME 4940, engineering internship.

2.14.5. Double Majors

BME students who wish to double major in BE and BME (i.e., graduate with a bachelor of science

degree with majors in biological engineering and biomedical engineering), they must additionally

take 12 credits of engineering technical electives from the approved technical electives listed under the bioprocessing and/or the bioenvironmental tracks of the Biological Engineering major. These

classes must be passed with the same grades as required for students majoring in only the BE

degree.

2.15. Student Resources The University of Missouri and the College of Engineering provide a number of resources to help students succeed academically. These include:

Part 3: Accelerated Master’s (5 Year) Plan

Updated 2019-02-19 47

1. Overview of the Plan The Accelerated Master’s plan typically allows a qualified student to graduate in approximately 5 years with both a B.S. and an M.S. or M.E. degree. The B.S. can be in either Biological Engineering or Biomedical Engineering. The M.S. or M.E. degree will be in Biological Engineering. An M.S. degree should be pursued by students interested in doing research, or seeking to further their education by pursuing a Ph.D. or other research-intensive professional or graduate degree. An M.E. degree should be pursued by students seeking to specialize in a certain field, or who want additional training to be more competitive in non-academic jobs or non-research intensive professional or graduate degrees. To accomplish this, during the last 30 credits hours of the B.S. program (i.e., usually the senior year), the student can enroll in 12 credit hours of classes listed as 7000s or 8000s. Up to 12 credits of 4000/7000 level courses, taken at the 7000 level, can be taken as “dual credit,” although those classes taken for graduate credit will be up to the discretion of your research advisor. This means that the courses can count toward the B.S. degree as well as the M.S./M.E. degree. Please note: dual-enrollment during your senior year does NOT guarantee admission to the graduate program in Biological Engineering. To participate in this plan, you must do BOTH of the following:

Apply for and receive the ability to dual-enroll Apply and be accepted into either the M.S. or M.E. degree program in Biological Engineering

1.1. Summary of Credits Required for Each Degree

B.S. Credit Hours = 127 credits

M.S. Credit Hours = 30 credits / M.E. Credit Hours = 36 credits

Dual credits that can be applied to both B.S. and M.S./M.E. = 12 hours

o Dual credits cannot be required courses such as BIOL_EN or BME 4380/7380, 4980W/7980

o Dual credits must be technical engineering electives, such as BIOL_EN or BME 4370/7370

During a student’s 4th year of undergraduate studies, the student will dual-enroll as an undergraduate and graduate student, enabling them to take 12 credit hours of BIOL_EN courses at the graduate level. These classes will count towards both the undergraduate degree and the graduate degree. This leaves 18 credits (M.S.) or 24 credits (M.E.) that must be completed during the summer, fall, and spring terms after graduation with the B.S. degree in order to finish the M.S. or M.E. degree in one year.

1.2. Eligibility for Dual Enrollment and the Accelerated Master’s Plan

You must have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 in the most recent 45 semester hours of credit

4. Cost

Graduate credit costs apply to the 7000/8000 courses, including those taken under dual enrollment. However, this means you only pay for those credits once, and your total cost will be less than completing a B.S. and then enrolling in a separate M.S. or M.E. program. The following table below provides an estimate of your costs; note that these costs may increase.

M.S. Program Costs

Tuition per credit $360.00 $10,800.00 (30 credits) – 3,384.00 (dual enrolled) = $7,416.00

Nonresident Fee (added to Tuition if not a Missouri resident)

per credit $625.80 $18,774.00 additional

Prepaid Health Fee flat rate $77.52 $232.56 (3 terms) Recreation Facility Fee flat rate $75.38 $226.14 (3 terms) Student Activity Fee flat rate $20.72 $62.16 (3 terms) Information Technology Fee per credit $13.49 $404.70 (30 credits) Total Cost $11,984.70 (in-state), $28,868.00 (out-of-state)

M.E. Program Costs Tuition per credit $360.00 $12,960.00 total (36 credits) – 3,384.00 (dual

enrolled) = $9,576.00 Nonresident Fee (added to Tuition if not a Missouri resident)

per credit $625.80 $22,528.80 additional

Prepaid Health Fee flat rate $77.52 $232.56 (3 terms) Recreation Facility Fee flat rate $75.38 $226.14 (3 terms) Student Activity Fee flat rate $20.72 $62.16 (3 terms) Information Technology Fee per credit $13.49 $485.64 (36 credits) Total Cost $ 14,146.50 (in-state), $34,407.30 (out-of-state)

Again, we note that when courses are taken under dual enrollment, the student will pay the graduate tuition for those credits; however, you only pay these credits once, saving ~ $3,384.00 compared to doing the programs separately at the University of Missouri.

Burn wound imaging using photoacoustic tomography Credit hours: 3

Summary: Globally, there are approximately eleven million injuries related to burns that require care each

year. Due to the current methods used for diagnosis, only about 66% of wounds are correctly

diagnosed. Misdiagnosis can lead to unnecessary treatments, costing both the patient and burn

wound specialists time and money. The most common method currently used for diagnosis is

“visual inspection,” where a clinician classifies the wound by simply observing it, leading to

common misdiagnoses. Other explored methods of wound analysis, such as biopsies, have proven

to have a variety of limitations, including a short time window between injury occurrence and

depth analysis, high invasiveness, and shallow depth analysis. These restrictions present the need

for a method to provide quantitative information about burn wounds to clinicians trying to

diagnose them.

This project includes the development of a hand-held device that uses backward-mode

optoacoustic computed tomography (OACT) to image synthetic burn wound tissue. In backward-

mode OACT, the sensor is placed on the same side of the tissue as the incident light, allowing

imaging of thicker tissue without the destruction (attenuation via absorption and scattering) of the

signals from other variables such as bones. The design is waveguide-mediated to allow all of the

light to be directed into the tissue underneath the sensor while retaining sensitivity by minimizing

the space between the sensor and the tissue. By using laser light with a wavelength strongly

absorbed by the outer layer of the burn, thermoexpansion occurs at the boundary of the burn

wound. Pressure caused by the expansion creates an acoustic wave that is detected and converted

into electrical signals via a transducer. The signal is filtered and recorded via LabVIEW and it is

then analyzed in MATLAB for visual analysis of burn wounds up to approximately 2 mm deep.

Overall, the device characterizes and images the depth of synthetic burn wounds on a micro scale,

which could ultimately provide a method for clinicians to correctly diagnose burns.

Engineering content:

Updated 2019-02-19 66

My focus will be to redesign the optical train within the device while still allowing it to be

incorporated within the handpiece. I will develop a collimator that allows the use of an optical

fiber with a larger diameter (1500 µm) compared to the current design, which uses an optical fiber

with a diameter of 550 µm; this small fiber size limits energy transmission to the tissue, which

reduces the image quality and resolution. The collimator is essential to collect the energy from the

optical fiber and direct it into the waveguide. The new design will allow more energy to be coupled

into the fiber and delivered to the tissue, generating a stronger signal to improve the signal to noise

ratio. Currently, 32 signal averages are taken as a method for noise reduction, however by

developing a stronger signal, the design will be able to perform real-time imaging. The design

will be created within OpticStudio of Zemax and tested using the current protocols used by the

lab, which uses synthetic skin tissue.
