HARVARD GAZETTE ARCHIVES New Bioengineering Group To Be Established
The Harvard-M.I.T. Division of Health Sciences and Technology is part of a consortium group that has received $10 million from the National Science Foundation to fund an engineering research center to develop bioengineering educational technologies and curricula for the new millennium. The grant calls for establishment of the Vanderbilt-Northwestern-Texas-Harvard/M.I.T. Center for Bioengineering Educational Technologies. The Center will support and enhance the education of the new generation of bioengineers needed to strengthen the industry's competitiveness. The Center is the first in the nation dedicated to bioengineering education and will draw from the five institutions' expertise in bioengineering and learning technologies. The grant is for $2 million per year for five years, and may be extended an additional three years.
