Learning Outcomes
| - | Students are able to work as members of multidisciplinary teams and to apply advanced methodologies at the interface between engineering and health sciences.
Students are able to apply engineering expertise to the design of devices, systems, algorithms, software, models, materials, methods or processes in order to meet the desired functional and regulatory requirements for the commercialization of medical products. Students are able to design and carry out a research plan to test hypotheses, to analyze and interpret the results in the context of the research, and to report the results according to scientific principles. |
