The NUS Graduate Programme in Bioengineering (GPBE) is a premier programme under the aegis of the NUS Graduate School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering (NGS). It integrates engineering and the life sciences to nurture outstanding bioengineers and to provide interdisciplinary opportunities in bioengineering research.

In contrast to other graduate programmes, GPBE students have the opportunity to identify their research interests and thesis supervisors through the Lab Rotation programme. With more than 60 participating faculty members drawn from across the faculties and research institutes, students have ample opportunities to train under top researchers, and with a community of brilliant and motivated student peers.
