It's a brand new curriculum, so if you are attracted to being a guinea pig (it's not like the school is on preliminary accreditation, but it's still an adjustment), I see the attraction.But what about the MEng in engineering, need-analysis, and innovation at EnMed?
I would eventually earn an MEng…
You can fuse engineering and medicine without having a MEng. Physicians and surgeons do it every day, right now, and most don’t have an engineering degree. There’s a reason why medical device reps/engineers and surgeons are different people - primarily, the time constraints of being a resident/practicing surgeon.I currently have an aspiration to fuse engineering and medicine, if possible, in my career: medical devices and regenerative medicine are interesting to me. I also realize that technology and engineering are becoming more and more important in medicine.
Have you researched what research opportunities are available at Jefferson?Jeff has good research in plastics, neurosurg, and ortho?
Where’s my heart as in what do I really want to do?
EnMed’s MEng allows you to develop early-stage medical technologies. Their MD/MEng is in 4 years than 5.
After undergrad, I went to work to see what engineering in practice is like; and, I ultimately decided that even though I like engineering, my heart belongs in medicine despite its short-comings.
You can use Google, and look up the areas of research you are interested in, associated with the name of the medical school of which you’ve been accepted to.I don’t know how to find that info. Do you have any idea how?
