โ–ถObjectives

Respond to the demand of specialists caused by the introduction of disruptive technologies in medical device manufacturing under MDR Regulation (EU) 2017/745 by: O1: Incorporating Industry 4.0 (AR/VR, 3D Bioprinting, AI) in Biomedical Engineering curricula. O2: Adopting new digital teaching methods for transnational knowledge-exchange in the e-Metaverse. O3: Promoting personalized device manufacturing to encourage med-tech entrepreneurship. O4: Fostering collaboration across med-tech agents.

โ–ถActivities

For achieving the objectives, these actions will be carried out in close collaboration with industry partners: A1: Generation of new e- contents in the biomedical field (e-courses, e-laboratories & e-case studies). A2: Setting up an innovative digital learning framework under a dedicated metaverse platform. A3: Testing new digital teaching methodologies for blended-mode education and summer schools. A4: Promoting med-tech entrepreneurship through hackathons and multiplier events.

โ–ถImpact

R1: Metaverse platform with new contents: 8 e-book modules, 5 e-toolkit modules and 6 e-case studies. R2: Organization of 3 Workshops for teacher and staff instruction in new methodologies. R3: Organization of 3 Summer Schools students for personalized medical device manufacturing. R4: Organization of 4 Hackathons for students and 4 multiplier events for all the agents involved. R5: Students (116), Teachers (123) and Staff (38) mobilities for setting and testing the educational model proposed.
