Neuroengineering is broadly defined to include the modeling of neural and endocrine systems, neural networks, and complexity in physiological systems, evolutionary influences in biological control systems, neurocontrol, neurorobotics, and neuroprosthetics. This concentration focuses on the theory of neural signaling, as well as addressing issues that have a neuroscientific basis, such as locomotion and pattern generation, central control of movement, and the processing of sensory information. Students pursing this concentration will learn the fundamental theory of cellular potentials and chemical signaling, the Hodgkin Huxley description of action potential generation, circuit representations of neurons and be able to derive and integrate equations describing the circuit as well as design computer models. Upon graduation, students will be able to: Model specific aspects of neural systems; Understand control system theory as applied to neural systems; Understand how neuroengineering can be applied in clinical situations.

Admission Requirements

6.5+
Applicants to Drexel University are expected to have completed the high school curriculum that will best prepare them for freshman-year studies at the college level. One year of calculus One year of physics (with lab) English Language requirement: Students have a first (or native) language is English. They have studied at a high school for a minimum of three years where English is the primary language of instruction. We strongly recommend that students who choose this exemption still submit both the SAT or ACT and TOEFL or IELTS exams to demonstrate English language proficiency. They have received a minimum score of 600 on the SAT Critical Reasoning section or a minimum score of 27 on the ACT English section.
