| The Interdisciplinary Program in Biomaterials is an outgrowth of a masters degree program in Dental Materials, sponsored by the School of Dental Medicine since 1971. Through policies established by the Graduate School of the University, courses and research topics have been developed to provide comprehensive knowledge of prosthetic materials, from bio/surface and molecular interactions to device design and surgical requirements. Supporting themes include safe processing of biological materials and devices [e.g. sterilization], global regulatory perspectives, environmental engineering, facilities sanitation, and international marketing. |
