Overview
The education aims of the CMI program are:
1) to educate engineering students in aspects of medical product design and development process through being involved in meaningful, real-world projects;
2) to educate medical students and clinicians in engineering methodology in developing solutions to their problems; and
3) to educate business and law students on the unique contributions that those professions make in development of new medical technology.
The Department of Bioengineering offers two formal educational programs that enable the CMI educational mission:
1)
Professional Master of Science in Bioengineering - Medical Product Engineering , admission to which is by application to and acceptance from the Department of Bioengineering

2)
Graduate Certificate in Medical Product Innovation , which can be earned
by students in
any graduate program in the University upon completion of certificate requirements. Additionally, post-baccalaureate and post-professional students interested in obtaining the Certificate only can apply to the Department of Bioengineering for
admission to the Certificate program.
