MGMT90231 BioDesign Innovation
The BioDesign Innovation elective at MBS offers an opportunity for students to explore the medical innovation area within a multi-disciplinary team, comprised of MBA students, postgraduate engineering students, and medical clinicians. BioDesign Innovation is modelled after similar, highly successful programs at Stanford University and Hebrew University.
BioDesign Innovation is a “real world”, team-based subject focused on creating successful medical devices. The main outcomes of the subject are to identify a medical innovation that has the potential to be a successful product or service, to build a prototype, and to develop a business model for commercialisation.
Two teams from the inaugural MBS class in 2016 participated in MedTech’s Got Talent, an entrepreneurship competition, and won funding and mentoring to pursue their products beyond the subject.
BioDesign Innovation is taught over Terms 1, 2 and 3 and counts for three MBS elective subjects; the subject is also open to students who have fewer than three electives remaining. Participants will gain academic training and practical skills useful to entrepreneurs and executives alike.
