The unit ceiling comes into play only when you want to take additional semesters. If you will finish your final semester at or under the unit ceiling, you can be extended to the next Fall or Spring semester.
A student declared in a single major will earn units by the end of their 8th semester. However, of those units, 15 are units from AP exam credit.
This means that they will have units that count towards the unit ceiling by the end of their 8th semester. Since the student will not exceed units, they are eligible to request an extension of their EGT to the next semester.
If that student wished to extend their time another term, the process would repeat. If the student wished to take more coursework, they would need to explore other options besides regular enrollment in a Fall or Spring semester. If you exceed the unit ceiling and are blocked from enrolling in Fall and Spring semesters, you may still enroll in Berkeley classes during UC Berkeley Summer Sessions. It is important to note that while UC Berkeley summer sessions do not count toward the semester limit, the units earned in UC Berkeley summer sessions do count toward the unit ceiling.
Please contact UC Berkeley Extension for more information. Please note that UC Berkeley Extension has a different payment and enrollment structure than attending a regular Fall or Spring semester. See our Transfer Credit: UC Berkeley Extension page for more information about how this credit may transfer into your record.
If you exceed the unit ceiling and are blocked from enrolling in Fall and Spring semesters, you may still take courses at other institutions see our Transfer Credit pages for more information. If, while on a break from Cal, you take classes at another institution during a Fall or Spring semester, these semesters will count toward your semester limit.
The start date is approximately 10 days before the beginning of the fall semester at UC Berkeley. Currently there is only a full-time version of the MTM program. Students must complete their degree requirements within the month duration of the program. The MTM coursework and project work requires students to be physically present in the San Francisco Bay Area during the duration of the program year.
The MTM program has been specifically designed to provide students with the fundamental principles needed to develop new medical technologies. See the MTM curriculum page for full details. At present, the MTM program is not organized around sub-disciplines in translational medicine, but this may change in the future. In the near future, for instance, we may pilot a regulatory concentration.
In addition to the 18 units of core courses, each student needs to select at least 6 units of electives that address particular academic interests and professional goals. The MTM program is an intensive accelerated degree, and most students find that the 24 semester-unit curriculum is relatively demanding. Students can enroll in additional elective courses beyond the unit requirement, though they must be fully prepared to take on this additional course load.
The MTM curriculum includes directed coursework designed to teach students about how technology innovation is managed in both entrepreneurial ventures and established companies.
Students in the MTM program work on team-based capstone projects that are focused on the development of new medical technologies to address unmet clinical needs. Each project is different, and students often work on a variety of translational issues including, but not limited to: intellectual property, FDA regulations, prototyping, testing and validation, cost-effectiveness, marketing, and business development.
Capstone project proposals are submitted to the MTM program annually, and they typically come from three main sources:. Capstone projects proposals are pre-screened by the MTM leadership, and initial selections are provided to students during the initial weeks of the program. Students submit resumes to the projects they are most interested in working on, and the MTM program leadership builds teams to match student preferences with mentor skill requirements.
We cannot be certain that any particular project will be offered in any given year. We do our best to ensure that the available projects cover a variety of different technologies and clinical needs, but it is not possible to cover all topics.
All of the available projects will cover translational issues of medical-technology development, but applicants to the MTM program must be willing to be flexible when it comes to working on specific topics. Those applicants who have a strong desire to work only within a specific area of interest may be better suited for a more traditional MS program. Due to the timing of the project selection process, admitted applicants to the MTM program must inform us of their decision to attend the program before the list of projects becomes available.
New students are not provided with the list of project proposals until the program begins. Each project must be pre-screened by the MTM leadership to ensure that it will fit the needs of the students and the program. Additionally, every project must be led by an appropriate mentor. As such, MTM students cannot submit their own ideas as potential Capstone projects. The Capstone team project requirement is mandatory.
All students in the MTM are required to enroll in certain core courses on both campuses, but the total amount of time spent at a given campus for each student will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to:. Every student experience is unique, and we strive to make each one as exciting and fulfilling as possible. MTM students and alumni are typically too busy to handle inquiries from the broad pool of prospective applicants, but the MTM Executive Director is available to answer questions via email or to arrange time for a phone call.

If a course lists multiple breadths it may satisfy, this means you have options of which breadth it satisfies. Also, a maximum of two classes from a single department or department cluster may apply to Seven-Course Breadth.
The Academic Progress Report will shuffle courses to different breadth requirements if needed, but if you would like to manually switch which breadth a course satisfies, you may fill out an APR Correction Form.
Other General Education Requirements Aside from the exception noted above regarding Seven-Course Breadth, courses may apply to multiple general education areas. It is rare to find Essential Skills classes that count toward multiple general education areas.
Double Majors and Simultaneous Degrees You can overlap up to two upper division courses between two majors. Minor You can overlap up to one upper division course between a minor and a major. Can high school exam scores satisfy Seven-Course Breadth?
