The challenges in the healthcare sector are complex, multifactorial, and involve several actors in society. It is no longer possible to face them without a multidisciplinary and technological approach. It is essential that professionals who are willing to work in this field are capable of dialoging with multidisciplinary teams and combining their specific knowledge with other topics in the exact, biomedical, and human sciences. This synergy allows the emergence of truly impactful innovations in the healthcare sector, which produce economic and technological results and, ultimately, collaborate with the promotion, monitoring, and recovery of the health of populations.

In this context, the Postgraduate Program in Bioengineering Applied to Health offers professionals who seek this excellence the opportunity to occupy these niches in the job market. In the course, the main and most disruptive topics will be addressed with theoretical foundation, practical application, and analysis of real cases. All to provide a new and differentiated stage in the training of these professionals.

Program

Classes will be based on dialogue with active components, case discussions, analysis, and presentation of scenarios, practical workshops in laboratories, creation of solutions, seminars, execution of experiments in the laboratory, and preparation of small projects.
