Data analysis Product or service launchSkills
design prototyping data analysis research reflectionDo you have a healthcare-related problem that you wish you could get at if you had just a little more time?
Teams of Masters of Engineering (MEng) students will work to address an engineering design problem that your organization is facing. These students typically have an degree in an engineering discipline, life sciences, or biotechnology. The team will receive guidance from a faculty member who teaches medical device design and coordinates biomedical engineering design projects. The students in each team will be expected to work full time on the project for 4 months and demonstrate a feasible solution to your problem at the end of the course.
Learners
Students will work to complete the following:
- Detailed assessments of your requirements and engineering specifications related to your problem
- All documentation needed to implement the proposed solution
- A working prototype and test results
