A one year Masters program housed within Brown University's School of Engineering, the PRIME Program focuses on developing science and engineering graduates’ skills so as to prepare them to more efficiently participate in a complex and highly competitive technology-driven economy, based on the development of innovative, embryonic ideas. The PRIME experience is unique in that allows its students to comprehensively address the realities of value creation. It does so by taking embryonic ideas through the venture stage by having students work side-by-side with faculty and professionals from outside Brown.
