Throughout the course, the class travels across the UNO campus and the city of New Orleans, where students will learn from the innovation team at the Beach, UNO faculty in engineering, computer sciences, hospitality, and business, as well as industry experts at the Idea Village and the New Orleans BioInnovation Center. The students will learn about customer discovery, business planning, fundraising, as well as software prototyping and 3D printing/rapid prototyping. By the end of the class, students will understand how to turn an idea into a viable startup concept as well as how to build prototypes of their concepts.

At LSU New Orleans the One-Year Master of Science Degree Program gives students the opportunity to obtain a M.S. degree in Biological Sciences with a concentration in Biomedical Science.

The program requires coursework, an internship in research or the health professions, a capstone scholarly research paper and oral presentation.

The degree has been designed to give students the option of completing the degree in one academic year. Students may
also choose to reduce the course load taken per semester and finish in 3-4 semesters.

The curriculum focuses on investigating the biomedical research that underlies advances in medicine.
