The University's general admission requirements are discussed on the Graduate Admission page. The student entering the MS ME program should meet the following guidelines:. Students from other engineering disciplines or from other areas of science or mathematics may be considered for admission to the program; however, additional coursework may be necessary to complete the master's program.

A student lacking undergraduate prerequisites for graduate courses in mechanical engineering must complete these prerequisites or receive approval from the faculty advisor and the course instructor. The University's general degree requirements are discussed on the Graduate Policies and Procedures page. The MS degree in Mechanical Engineering requires a minimum of 33 semester credit hours of graduate level coursework.

A student must maintain a grade point average GPA of at least 3. All students must have a faculty advisor and an approved plan of study within the first two consecutive long semesters in the program.

The plan of study is based upon the student's choice of concentration area. Courses taken without advisor's approval will not be counted towards the 33 semester credit hour requirement.

Successful completion of an approved plan of study leads to the MS ME degree. The MS ME program has both a thesis and a non-thesis option.

All part-time MS ME students will be assigned initially to the non-thesis option. Those wishing to elect the thesis option may do so by obtaining the approval of a faculty thesis supervisor. All full-time, supported students are required to participate in the thesis option. The thesis option requires three semester credit hours of research, and three semester credit hours of thesis.

The thesis is required to be submitted to the graduate school, and presented in a formal public defense. The supervising committee administers this defense and is chosen in consultation with the student's thesis advisor prior to enrolling for thesis credit. Research and thesis semester credit hours cannot be counted in a MS ME degree plan unless a thesis is written and successfully defended.

A MS student in ME must take a total of four core courses, selected from two or more concentration areas from the list of the four concentration areas below, and must receive a grade of B- or better in the four core courses. Dynamic Systems and Control. Manufacturing and Design Innovation. Mechanics and Materials. Thermal and Fluid Sciences. The following is a list of prescribed elective courses.

Students must take at least 3 prescribed graduate-level elective courses from one concentration area. As our world is facing more severe aging population problems, significant growth in implant applications is foreseeable. The future implants should be smaller, flexible, power efficient and more versatile so that they can be used at places not possible before.

This talk will focus on my research of eye implants done at the Caltech. Specifically, human trials of a bionic implant device for blind retinitis pigmentosa patients will be presented.
