Rather, 8 different academic units from the Colleges of Engineering and Computing make up the program. \u0026nbsp;However, the BioE Program provides the degree requirements for students accepted into the program. This approach allows a flexible, integrative and individualized degree program that enforces depth and breadth in coursework, a solid bioengineering research experience, and yet is reflective of the disciplinary background of the student\u0027s home school. Importantly, the BioE Program provides research opportunities for students with any participating program faculty, allowing tremendous diversity and flexibility for research topics and advisors.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESummer 2011 graduates:\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EErskine Benjamin - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - MS (Non-Thesis)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJonathan Bergdoll\u003C\/strong\u003E - BIOE\/ECE - MS (Non-Thesis) - \u003Cem\u003EPaul Hasler, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAshley Carson Brown\u003C\/strong\u003E - BIOE\/BMED - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EThomas Barker, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMatthew Crane - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ChBE - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EHang Lu, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBhargav Kumar Errangi - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/BMED - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EJames Rilling, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJulie Johnson - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - MS (Non-Thesis) - \u003Cem\u003EDon Giddens, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESungho Kim - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/BMED - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EDon Giddens, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EPeng Meng Kou - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/BMED - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EJulia Babensee, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJennifer Megan Munson - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ChBE - PhD - \u003Cem\u003ERavi Bellamkonda, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EJessica Marie O\u0027Neal - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - PhD - \u003Cem\u003ERobert Guldberg, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EEdward Allen Phelps - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - MS (Non-Thesis) - \u003Cem\u003EAndres Garcia, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAndrew Lawrence Raines - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/BMED - PhD - \u003Cem\u003EBarbara Boyan, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESarah Shieh - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - MS (Non-Thesis) - \u003Cem\u003EDavid Ku, Advisor\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EKelly Straub - \u003C\/strong\u003EBIOE\/ME - MS (Non-Thesis) - \u003Cem\u003ERudy Gleason, Advisor\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":[{"value":"Fourteen new graduates complete their degrees in BioE"}],"field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EGT\u0027s Bioengineering Graduate program announces its Summer 2011 graduates\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2011-08-23 09:20:11","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:09:59","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2011-08-19T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2011-08-19T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"69525":{"id":"69525","type":"image","title":"GT cap","body":null,"created":"1449177264","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:14:24","changed":"1475894609","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:43:29","alt":"GT cap","file":{"fid":"193417","name":"gt_cap.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/gt_cap_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/gt_cap_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":3699,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/gt_cap_0.jpg?itok=bo7fL462"}}},"media_ids":["69525"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.bioengineering.gatech.edu\/","title":"BioEngineering website"}],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
