Admissions Guidelines


The Department of Bioengineering offers high quality training in bioengineering that is flexible and multidisciplinary. The design-based focus permeates every aspect of our training philosophy and our dual campus program provides a unique opportunity for students to gain hands on experience in both the basic and clinical sciences. The BS Bioengineering degree program at the University of Colorado Denver is a highly rigorous program. 

The Major courses, which will be taught at the Anschutz Medical Campus, will not be available until Fall 2015. 

Review of applications is underway and students will be admitted on a rolling basis until all slots are filled. 

For general BS Bioengineering information please contact our advising office at bioengineering@ucdenver.edu or 303-724-9972.

Our desired student will have graduated in the top 10% of their high school class. Students having completed AP/IB credit are encouraged to apply. 

Students applying to the program must select Pre-Bioengineering (Pre-BIOE) as their "Field of Study" in the online application.  If you are admitted to the program you will enroll in the core curriculum courses which are offered at the Denver campus.
