Transfer
Credit for
Certified
Biomedical Equipment Technician (CBET) Certification
and
Department
of Defense BMET Training
The Bachelor’s Degree in Biomedical Engineering Technology
at IUPUI requires 42 courses. Courses
are divided into two groups – first/second year (100/200 level) and
third/fourth year (300/400) and are often shown in two columns on a plan of
study. There are 21 courses in the
first/second year (and they make up the Associate Degree). These 20 courses total 65 credits. Of these 21 courses, 14 of them are technical
courses (circuits, etc). These 14
courses total 42 credits. Applicants who can document CBET
certification or Department of Defense BMET training will receive a block of 42
technical credits at the 100/200 course designation level. These credits will be used to satisfy the
first/second year technical credits.
They can only be used toward the Biomedical Engineering Technology
Degree at IUPUI.
The 42 credits are awarded even if the applicant has never
attended college.
The award does NOT eliminate other first/second year course general
requirements, which include mathematics, English, physics, speech and
psychology (a total of 7 courses, 22 credits).
The block credits will not allow an applicant to receive an
associate degree from IUPUI. The credits
are applied to the bachelor’s degree only.
