Doctoral students are admitted on two levels: Post Baccalaureate or Post Master's PhDs. Students who have completed only a Bachelor's degree are admitted as Post Baccalaureate and students who have earned a prior MS degree may be admitted as Post Master's PhD students at the discretion of the admission committee. Post master's students must complete a total of 45 credits. All students are required to satisfy the MS core courses as listed in the table below except those students who have taken these courses during their MS studies at Drexel's School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems. All the requirements of the Master's degree program below are incorporated into the Post Baccalaureate Doctoral Program with exception of the Master's thesis. Doctoral students must pass successfully a "candidacy examination" at the end of the first year of their study, but no later than the end of the second year. After the student has passed the candidacy examination, he or she is named a Doctoral Candidate. Candidates must submit a Thesis Proposal by the end of the second year and give an oral presentation to a committee of five professors. Once the student has successfully completed his or her research and has written a thesis according to the guidelines specified by the Office of Research and Graduate Studies he or she must give an oral presentation of his or her accomplishments and defend the thesis Biomechanics and Human Performance Engineering Biomechanics and human performance engineering is designed to meet two objectives: to acquaint students with the responses of biological tissues to mechanical loads as well as with the mechanical properties of living systems and to provides the students with the background and skills needed to create work and living environments which improve human health and enhance performance. Biomechanics and Human Performance also involves the study of orthopedic appliances and the broader aspect of Rehabilitation Engineering and the Management of Disability.
