The Department of Biomedical Engineering at Rowan University is recruiting outstanding candidates for our Doctoral (PhD) and Master’s (MS) programs to begin Fall 2025. Ongoing faculty-led biomedical research at Rowan University includes basic and translational research as well as commercialization opportunities in fields including biomaterials, tissue engineering, biomechanics, biomedical robotics, drug delivery, synthetic biology and immunoengineering. Collaborations with physicians at Cooper Medical School of Rowan University and Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine offer opportunities to participate in clinical research projects as well.

All of our admitted PhD students are provided with a Research Fellowship that includes a full tuition waiver and competitive biweekly stipend.
