AI Thread Summary
Undergraduate physics majors interested in biophysics and tissue engineering, particularly in-vitro meat production, should focus on essential math and physics courses for graduate studies in bioengineering. Key recommended courses include Vectors & Matrices, Ordinary Differential Equations, Discrete Mathematics, and Linear Algebra. Additionally, taking biology and physiology classes, along with gaining lab experience in cell culture, is advised. Prospective students should explore graduate programs that specialize in muscle tissue or in-vitro meat development, as many schools provide detailed information on current projects and entrance requirements on their websites.

I'm an undergraduate physics major right now but I may go for biophysics because I am very interested in tissue engineering, specifically in-vitro meat production. I may go to graduate school for bioengineering and I was wondering a few things:
-What do I absolutely need to learn? Including which math and physics courses. I have no problem self studying some stuff.
-What schools have graduate programs in the areas of muscle tissue or in-vitro meat development?

I'm a biochemistry major/math minor and I've been looking into bioengineering grad school as well... for non-engineering undergrads, most grad schools recommend these math courses:

Vectors & Matrices
Ordinary Differential Equations
Discrete Mathematics
Linear Algebrait's helpful to browse different grad school web pages, they usually have a lot of information on current projects and typical entrance requirements...
 
I would really recommend taking a few biology and/or physiology classes, and working in a lab that does cell culture. A molecular biology class wouldn't hurt, either.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
