This course is designed to serve as an applied introduction to business in a technical environment, focusing on four key areas; (1) Finance, (2) Management, (3) Marketing and (4) Intellectual Property. In this course, teams consisting of students from the Pratt School of Engineering and Trinity College of Arts & Sciences (Markets and Management Studies program) will work together to develop and present a business plan for a technical product concept. Projects will be drawn from senior design projects in Biomedical Engineering or the teams may identify a project concept of their own choosing (with approval of the instructor)

This interdisciplinary course introduces students to engineering and management principles involved in the design process as it occurs in the development and commercialization of innovative technology, with a special emphasis on healthcare applications and their legal and regulatory framework. Tools and techniques for managing the design process will be presented and a framework for the management of risk and crisis will be developed. Principles of risk and crisis management will be presented, including the identification, analysis, prioritization, resolution and monitoring of risk. Risk management techniques such as failure modes effects analysis and fault tree analysis will be applied to designs of varying complexity. Crisis management concepts to be presented include contingency planning, crisis recognition and containment.

This course will cover several systems that use electrical stimulation or recording of the nervous system to restore function following disease of injury. For each system the course will cover the underlying biophysical basis for the treatment, the technology underlying the treatment, and the associated clinical applications and challenges. Systems to be covered include cochlear implants, spinal cord stimulation of pain, vagus nerve stimulation for epilepsy, deep brain stimulation for movement disorders, sacral root stimulation for bladder dysfunction, and neuromuscular electrical stimulation for restoration of movement. Related topics of failure analysis and prevention, regulatory issues, design controls, quality systems, reimbursement, and cost effectiveness will also be considered.
