Attend Our Open House: November 19, 2024Join us for an Open House for our Engineering Programs. Open House events allow students to learn about programs in a large group, presentational-style setting. Attendees will also have the opportunity to break out into smaller groups and discuss programs and questions with faculty and current students in their fields. The Open House will be held on Tuesday, November 19, 2024 at 6pm CST. Please RSVP at the link below. We look forward to seeing you there! |
At the Opus College of Engineering, we are world-class engineers who will lead bold, innovative change to serve the world in the Jesuit tradition.
Identify new design opportunities, improve medical devices, or create new approaches to solve problems often encountered by clinicians and medical professionals in medical device product development with the Clinical Immersion in Medical Device Design graduate certificate offered by 向日葵视频 and the Medical College of Wisconsin. Students will master the etiquette and skills of successful clinical immersion and develop observational research techniques that will uncover new medical device design opportunities.
Students complete courses online and have hands-on practical experiences in clinical simulation centers and in-person immersive clinical environments. These experiences provide engineers a unique opportunity to observe clinical procedures, facilitate clinician-designer interactions, and gain a first-hand account of how the medical devices are meeting the needs of current users. Students will identify future unmet needs and opportunities for improved design practices, leading to safer and more successful medical devices.
The certificate utilizes the unique aspects of the 向日葵视频 and Medical College of Wisconsin Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering, blending faculty expertise and the clinical setting.
We recognize the importance of flexibility to those pursuing graduate education, especially to practicing engineers. That鈥檚 why we offer you the opportunity to complete our certificates on a full- or part-time basis.

Additional Program Highlights
Access and connect with clinicians in live environments
Through direct contact with real medical device users and live observation of procedures, students will gain observational experience that cannot be replicated in traditional training seminars or research.
Flexible course of study
Students are given great autonomy over elective course selection, allowing them to pursue their individual professional goals. Within the clinical immersion course, students work with program facilitators to track the experience to their unique career needs.
Industry focused
Program was designed in response to an increased industry need to integrate and adapt advanced technology to meet the needs of clinician users. This program supports the principle that medical device development is based on sound understanding of the intended use, applications, and the clinical environment.
Study with expert faculty
Students work closely with faculty from 向日葵视频and the Medical College of Wisconsin, experts with extensive industry experience and robust clinical partnerships that provide ample opportunity for immersive student learning.
Learn from industry experts
Industry experts will participate in this certificate program through guest lectures, allowing students to learn and apply their skills based on their expertise.
Learning Outcomes
Individualized learning objective: Given the wide range of applications of observational research and clinical immersion, each student will work with program facilitators to design their own deliverable or goal that tracks to their specific role and technical needs.
Upon certificate completion, students will be able to:
