项目摘要

The United States is the world leader in the design and fabrication of medical devices, holding one-third of global market share. Aging populations and global military conflicts alone create a rapidly growing need for the state-of-the-art production of medical devices. There is a significant gap between the market for prosthetic devices and the nation's capacity to meet production needs in the future unless engineering technology and engineering programs educate future technologists to work in this field. In partnership with leading producers and medical professionals in this field, the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Design Technology at New York City College of Technology (City Tech) has designed an associate degree program that is well aligned with the Medical Device Harmonization Initiative created by the current Administration and the US Department of Labor, to help the medical industry address its workforce supply deficiencies. Considering that City Tech is the second most diverse institution of higher education among regional universities in the northeast producing a high number of associate degree recipients, it is anticipated that this project will also have a significant impact on the production of a diverse cohort of technologists with expertise in this critical field. City Tech will provide students with unique classroom experiences that combine curriculum enhancement with intensive hands on experience using state of the art design and manufacturing technologies and offering advanced certificates in key technical areas. Students will gain real world experience with the field through association by working on real-world projects with the prestigious Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan, SUNY-Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn, and other not-for-profit organizations, to design and fabricate prosthetic and medical devices. Students will be expanding their knowledge and multidisciplinary expertise in dental prostheses, business management, mechatronics, ethical issues in medical devices, and product lifecycle management through interaction with top experts in these fields. The project will also be introduced to grades 7-12 students and teachers in order to provide them with early exposure to this field.

美国是医疗器械设计和制造的世界领导者，占据全球市场份额的三分之一。仅人口老龄化和全球军事冲突就创造了对最先进医疗设备生产的快速增长的需求。假肢设备的市场和国家满足未来生产需求的能力之间存在着巨大的差距，除非工程技术和工程计划教育未来的技术人员在这一领域工作。与该领域的领先生产商和医疗专业人士合作，纽约市理工学院（City Tech）的机械工程和工业设计技术系设计了一个副学士学位课程，该课程与现任政府和美国劳工部创建的医疗器械协调计划保持一致，以帮助医疗行业解决其劳动力供应不足的问题。考虑到City Tech是东北地区大学中第二个最多样化的高等教育机构，产生了大量的副学士学位获得者，预计该项目也将对生产具有这一关键领域专业知识的多样化技术人员队伍产生重大影响。 City Tech将为学生提供独特的课堂体验，将联合收割机课程增强与使用最先进的设计和制造技术的密集实践经验相结合，并在关键技术领域提供高级证书。学生将获得真实的世界的经验，通过与著名的特殊外科医院在曼哈顿，纽约州立大学在布鲁克林医疗中心，和其他非营利组织，设计和制造假肢和医疗设备的现实世界的项目工作的领域。学生将通过与这些领域的顶级专家的互动，扩展他们在牙科修复、商业管理、机电一体化、医疗器械伦理问题和产品生命周期管理方面的知识和多学科专业知识。还将向7-12年级的学生和教师介绍该项目，以便使他们尽早接触这一领域。
