This growth was fueled by breakthroughs in molecular biology and many engineering technologies, symbolized by the Human Genome Project, arguably the greatest biomedical engineering accomplishment ever, and realized with creation of the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering.
Unless otherwise indicated in a particular course description in the University Catalog, students may not repeat for credit any course already completed with a grade of C (2.00 grade points) or higher. The maximum number of units for grade replacement is 16 semester units.
In a very general sense, a full-time student is often a student who takes 12 units, credits, or hours per term at an institution where the standard course load is 16 units, credits, or hours. This, of course, is a very general description.
