This track aims to provide a comprehensive biomedical device design training program through the use of a multidisciplinary, hands-on teaching approach in classroom, clinical, and laboratory settings. The track will focus students on clinical problem identification, medical device innovation, and commercial translation; all within the regulatory framework of the FDA. Students will immerse themselves within clinical environments and learn to observe procedures and medical devices to uncover unmet clinical needs. By refining these needs into feasible medical device products with commercial potential, student teams will further develop these ideas into testable prototypes and develop business. Upon completion of this track, students should be able to observe and identify unmet needs in clinical environments; work effectively in multidisciplinary teams in asynchronous environments; understand and apply FDA QSR in the design and development of medical devices; develop a business plan, attract potential funding sources, and start a company in the medical device industry.
