Undergraduate ConcentrationsCELLULAR AND MEDICAL PRODUCT ENGINEERING Coordinator: Jack Patzer (patzer@pitt.edu) The concentration in Cellular and Medical Product Engineering provides students with the opportunity to focus in areas related to cell culture, cellular (tissue) engineering and the development and control of artificial organs. The curriculum is designed for students interested in careers in development and clinical application of total organ replacement and transient organ support. Pre-medical students should also benefit from this area of emphasis. Students receive a solid grounding in organic chemistry, biochemistry, immunology, materials science, biomaterials, biocompatibility, and artificial organ development. All bioengineering students must have a minimum of 3 engineering courses out of the 7 non-core courses (5 concentration courses and 2 engineering/science courses). Cellular and Medical Product Engineering has the following requirements: TWO core courses
