What are the admission criteria for this program?
Like many master degree programs at CMU, the MSBIC program is very selective. Our focus is on the quality of our students and the quality of the educational experience. Most of our admitted students have degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering.
English language competency is strongly correlated to academic and professional success. Thus the degree program has a minimum English competency score requirement. A successful applicant will normally have a minimum TOEFL score of 100 or an IELTS score of at least 7.5.
The program has a minimum GRE requirement (Verbal . 160, Quant – 165). However, academic performance is the strongest predictor of success in the degree program. We prefer applicants to have minimum GPA of 3.5 or higher.
The application requires a personal essay for the application. What makes a good essay?
We are looking for strong evidence that you can do well in our degree program. For example, a description of your academic experience, your achievement in these courses project, is good evidence. A description of a software project, your involvement in the project, and the impact of the project is good evidence. Please write the essay yourself. Get help of course, but it should be substantially your own words.
The application requires letters of recommendation. What makes a good letter?
The strongest letters come from respected advisors, managers and professors who know your work and who write favorably about your work. Although no work experience is required for admission. However, we value some types of work experience, particularly if the experience is close to the type of work our graduates perform.
What about internships?
Internships provide an opportunity for an industrial development or industrial experience before graduation. This experience improves the student’s access to the company providing the internship and generally improves the student’s employment prospects. We encourage students to do an internship.

Carnegie Mellon’s Master of Science in Biotechnology Innovation and Computation program follows a unique educational paradigm that combines a rigorous computer science education with real-world experience in initiating and operating an entrepreneurial project with external stakeholders. BIC students often become successful entrepreneurs armed with a wealth of practical skills, experience, and concrete value-creation capabilities. Those who choose to take a position with an established company enter the market as professionals trained in the latest generation of computational and data engineering technology and best practices. BIC graduates are perfectly poised to create immediate value in any startup or established organization.
Our students apply techniques from machine learning, big data analytics, data mining and information retrieval to solve important problems in a wide range of domains. They learn to solve these problems by correctly capturing the information need, identifying resources, designing analytic pipelines, coding required modules and integrating emerging technologies into an effective solution. Once they hit the workforce, our graduates can quickly assemble teams, identify challenges and create innovative solutions to problems. BIC students have founded several successful startups from the projects they worked on within the program. For those who did not choose the entrepreneurial path, our graduates boast the highest average starting salaries of any professional master’s program at Carnegie Mellon in 2013, 2014 and 2015, and we currently have a 100 percent placement rate. Our alumni are data scientists, software engineers, and technical executives in the software, manufacturing and bio-science industries.
