Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: The purpose of this course is to develop the concept of a medical device, create a prototype, establish product design, and discuss standards and ethical values related to the products.
Course Content: The content of the course will start with transforming a need or problem into a biomedical context. After defining the problem, the course will cover concept generation and evaluation, defining electronic and software designs for the product. The process of prototyping and principles of industrial design will be examined. Project management and techniques for interdisciplinary communication will also be studied

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) The definition of biomedical devices and the concepts involved in developing a new biomedical device will be understood
2) The processes of prototype creation and project management will be learned
3) Gain knowledge about different work packages and interdisciplinary collaboration concepts within the project.
4) Able to acquire knowledge about fundamental material information, product life cycle, and principles such as industrial design
5) Improve medical instrumentation and device examples.
