To do

• Degree Evaluation (you have to log in to the web information system and select the "degree evaluation" option)- this is NEW from the registrar (used to perform a "degree audit") - it'll tell you in what areas you still need courses.  Especially useful for seniors wondering about graduation.
• READ the undergraduate catalog (also in the BME Office, SL121) includes 25 pages of new information (FAQs) in the BME Section (pp. 72-93) of the catalog.  READ this, it's very helpful in choosing a major, sub-track, and courses. Click here for the BME section.

Forms - please fill ALL of these out before coming to see me
Click on the links below to obtain useful documents for planning your course of study:

• Tracking document to make sure you have (or will have) all the courses you need to graduate - fill the boxes in with all courses you've taken AND plan to take (use a different color or font to indicate courses you're planning on taking)

• Four-year plan to make sure all of the courses you want to take fit into your schedule - pay special attention to "Cat-II" courses that are offered only every other year (e.g., 4000-level biomechanics and biofluids, and grad-level Tissue Engineering, Tissue Mechanics, and Composites). Check out the schedules below to see when they're offered.
