Methods
As a novel joint engineering-medical school curriculum to educate
medical students, residents, and fellows, the Augustine program
incorporates engineering coursework, biomedical research, and a
multidisciplinary design and business development experience to produce
physicians capable of designing and marketing “disruptive
technologies.” The Augustine program takes one-year to complete in
addition to the four-year medical education and provides a Master of
Biomedical Engineering upon completion.
