Drexel University School of Biomedical Engineering and Science 17 courses
This minor in Pediatric Engineering aims to train graduate students in related science, mathematics, technology, health, and engineering fields: 1) to develop a fundamental understanding of childhood injury and disease, healthcare, and treatment, and 2) to apply scientific and engineering concepts, methods, and approaches to address healthcare challenges with direct relevance to pediatric patients. Pediatric patients suffer from injuries and diseases that are congenital due to genetic factors and that are acquired due to exposure to environmental or biological factors, such as trauma, bacteria or viruses. Infants and children have unique physiology that dramatically changes during growth and development, and the substantial heterogeneity of complex pediatric illnesses and rare childhood diseases is distinct from adult diseases.
