Biomaterials Certificate Program

Training Provided by Technology Ed Biomaterials Certificate Program http://www. technologyed. com/ courses/ c112/ index. php Program Description The Biomaterials Certificate Program is designed to build competency in the development and use of materials for biomedical applications. The program reviews the wide range of available materials, syntheses, characterization methods, fabrication techniques, in vivo and in vitro medical devices, advantages, limitations, and their outlook for the future. The Biomaterials Certificate Program is composed of the following three courses: Polymer Science Fundamentals Polymer Science Fundamentals is a course that investigates these natural and man-made materials. We explore how these materials are synthesized, evaluated, and their commercial applications. We also review important properties that these materials possess, including their molecular, physical, chemical, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. Biomedical Polymers Biomedical Polymers is a course that provides the most recent development of biomedical polymers and their applications and covers a variety of biomedical areas such as in cardiovascular, dental, orthopedic, ophthalmologic and wound healing research. We will investigate polymer biocompatibility, absorption in the body, advantages relative to conventional materials, and any issues they may possess. Biomedical Nanotechnology Biomedical Nanotechnology is a course that investigates key areas in which nanotechnology can benefit biomedical applications, understanding of nanomaterials for various biomedical applications, wet and dry nanotechnology, and basics of nanofabrication. This course also introduces applications such as drug delivery, imaging and diagnostics, and tissue regeneration and engineering. Certificate Outcome After completion of the Biomaterials Certificate Program, students will be equipped with a basic understanding of the following: General polymer fundamentals Test methodologies Medical devices Materials suited for in vivo and in vitro applications Degradable, non degradable, and natural polymers Nanotechnology Fabrication techniques Advantages and limitations Outlook for the future Recommended Prerequisites A basic understanding of general chemistry is recommended but not required. Assessment Students will need to complete the above three courses
