BIOMEDSHIP
BIOMEDSHIP is a focused educational program at Purdue University that provides formal training in innovation and entrepreneurship in the context of biomedical technology. The program helps participants gain insight into the processes necessary for taking medical technology from design to implementation and commercialization.
Upon completion of the BIOMEDSHIP program, students will be well-positioned to make contributions in existing medical technology companies or de novo start-up firms.
Regulatory Affairs for Medical Devices
Students enrolled in any of the graduate programs offered by the Weldon School can participate in a sequence of courses designed to educate participants on practical regulatory affairs at both the initial approval and later compliance stages.
Students gain valuable in-depth knowledge of regulatory requirements as well as guided practice with effective regulatory document submissions.
This advanced education in quality and regulatory compliance will prepare students for rapid integration into regulatory affairs teams in critical areas of the industry.
