There is still time to participate in the Carle College of Medicine Capstone project.
Submit your application by Friday, March 1, 2024 at 11:59 pm CT.  More detailed information about the  application requirements can be found in the two attachments.

Monica Beistline Block an iMBA student who's participating in the Capstone program said, “it’s interesting to look at the different medical perspectives, the different engineering perspectives, and figure out that all these different facets are crucial to a great product. It creates that experience that you would have in the real world marketing a product.” Read about Monica's experience with the Carle Capstone project here.
