This identified need is compounded by the Covid-19 pandemic and theweak bio-infrastructure [5] to support the production of mRNA vaccines, monoclonal antibodytherapies, and cellular testbeds for validating the activity of biologics. As careers in biotechnologyindustry and research increase in the past five years [6] with growing student interest, we addressthe need to improve the MCTE track within biomedical engineering education. The rapid technological advancements in the MCTE field require concomitant curricularchanges formed on a student-centered pedagogical approach that emphasizes hands-onengagement with research and deliberate practice in biological

Traditional engineering training, without greatercontext of healthcare and medical need, social inequity, and understanding of the applications inthe healthcare system, only allows engineers to create technology, which makes iterative stepstoward impact in healthcare. Indeed, many research and industry approaches rely on creatinguseful technology and then finding healthcare or clinical applications for that technology. Thisapproach has had many successes, but uptake in the medical community is slow and adaptation tomeet clinical need is often a barrier to entry into the market [7].

Given the diversefield of biomedical engineering, from imaging modalities to implantable devices toemergent biotechnologies, no singular approach to ethics training will prepare ourstudents to assess their professional obligation to the ethical, social, and legalimplications of their future work.

Despite the presence of promising K-12 programs focused on teaching students innovation andentrepreneurially-minded skills, not enough is being done at the university level. Lack of fundingand trained personnel are plausible reasons. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts and Mathematics) programs have shown promise in improved student learning and skills associated with
healthcaredisparities; projects developed by students are intended to ultimately aid local clinician partners.This course fits logically into the undergraduate biomedical engineering curriculum, but thespecific effects of the course and its specific implementation have yet to be quantified.Methods:To quantify differences in IP creation, the office of Technology Ventures provided data on thenumber of invention disclosures, patent applications, and patents awarded. Long term, IPgeneration can be better quantified via actual awarded patents and this will be tracked in futurework. We ran a query against all the Biomedical Engineering undergraduate students from 2013to 2022 to obtain these numbers. The perceptions and opinions of students were measuredthrough a
