Description: Needs Finding in a Clinical Context is an experiential course that serves to expose Biomedical Engineering Graduate students to the clinical environment. It is critical for engineers to understand the context in which the devices they will design and develop are well suited to the users and use environment. By spending time observing the clinical setting, students will also become more aware of unmet needs in healthcare. The course will focus on important constraints within the healthcare fields as they relate to medical device development, as well as the global landscape of healthcare.
