Case = Case Western Reserve University. It is in Cleveland.

One option to possibly consider is a MD/PhD program–which a 7-8 program followed by residency. Still it will take you something on the order of 11-15 years before you’re ready to start a biotech career. That’s a very long time…

I don’t know how accommodating MD/PhD programs are toward engineering PhDs, though. I suspect it varies by school. Most are geared toward bioscience PhDs.

And it’s virtually impossible to complete a PhD in engineering part-time. You’re required to complete an original research project which is a full time endeavor.
