ATLANTA: A Thriving Metropolis
Atlanta is an integral and exciting aspect of the Georgia
Tech and Emory educational experience. Atlanta
is one of the Southeast’s most vibrant, progressive,
and dynamic cities. When students are not studying,
they explore Atlanta’s rich and diverse culture
through museums, music venues, professional sports
teams, shopping districts, and the best cuisine in the
south. Atlanta’s warm climate allows for year-round
outdoor activities. Mountains, lakes, campsites, and
hiking trails are all within an hour’s drive — and access
to Hartseld-Jackson Atlanta International Airport
makes the whole world just a ight away.
Located in Atlanta, the
Georgia Aquarium is the
world’s largest indoor
aquarium.
The biomedical engineering master’s program (MS BMED) is completed in three (non-thesis) to six (thesis) sequential semesters.
Candidates typically take two to four courses each semester.
