6 ECTS credits
180 u studietijd
Aanbieding 1 met studiegidsnummer 4021350FER voor alle studenten in het 1e en 2e semester met een gespecialiseerd master niveau.
Position of the course
The aim of the course is to present students an overview of all steps required to solve a biomedical problem by designing a product prototype and considering the first steps of the business development process. Students will be taught how to apply a methodical way of designing a product, which should lead to enhanced product quality. By creating several possible solutions to a problem the chance to find the optimal solution is enlarged. All parts of the methodical design process will be practiced as group assignments (groups of 4 to 6 students). Since group work is very important part of product development, this will also be taught and practiced. In addition, lectures will be given on aspects of intellectual property rights (patenting), quality assessment and assurance, patient safety regulations, business development. Will also include presentations and testimonies from relevant guest lecturers.
Contents
Designing biomedical products requires a specific methodical design process because of the diversity of the stakeholders, the different background of the project participants, the limitation of the amount of background information, and the complexity of the working environment. During this course tools are taught about:
