The bioInnovate program offers an immersive biomedical device design curriculum, combining multidisciplinary, practical instruction across classroom, clinical, and lab environments. This track guides students through clinical problem recognition, medical device creation, and commercialization while adhering to FDA regulations. Participants will engage directly with healthcare settings, learning to analyze medical procedures and equipment to pinpoint unaddressed clinical challenges. After transforming these insights into viable product concepts, student groups will advance them into functional prototypes and business strategies. Graduates of the bioInnovate program will gain the ability to: (1) detect and assess clinical needs through direct observation, (2) collaborate successfully in diverse teams across different settings, (3) implement FDA Quality System Regulations in medical device engineering, (4) formulate business strategies, secure investment opportunities, and launch medical technology ventures.

Qualification Requirements
Unofficial copies of transcripts from all colleges and universities attended
Applicants must have received, prior to commencing graduate study, a Bachelor's degree from an accredited institute, college, or university. Although no single field of undergraduate specialization is required, applicants to the program must have a thorough undergraduate background in engineering and life sciences. They are expected to have mastered basic material in the following areas:
mathematics (calculus through differential equations)
physics (college physics with calculus including mechanics and electronics)
chemistry (organic and/or biochemistry)
materials science (introductory course or strength of materials)
biology (introductory human anatomy or physiology)
All aspects of an application will be seriously considered during the evaluation process. However, typically successful applicants have a cumulative GPA that meets or exceeds ~3.5 and GRE scores of ~156 verbal, ~165 quantitative, ~4 analytical writing. International students should have a minimum composite TOEFL score of 90 on the internet-based test. However, students with composite TOEFL scores below 100 (internet-based test) may be required to enroll in English classes. The Department will also accept a minimum 7.5 IELTS score or 125 DUOLINGO score in lieu of the TOEFL.
