promoting high academicstandards and flexibility. These points underscore the need for systematic ways to measure andassess curricular complexity.Data-Driven Approaches for Quantifying Curricular ComplexityIn recent years, there has been an increased interest in data-driven approaches to studying andquantifying the complexity of engineering curricula [12]. Over the past decade, several studieshave introduced diverse methods for measuring this complexity. For instance, Roland et al. [13]analyzed curriculum prerequisite networks using a probabilistic student flow model. Theyidentified how individual courses affect graduation timelines and developed software to facilitatesimilar analyses. Meanwhile, Heileman et al. [14] proposed a network-analysis

Asstudents are already using these tools in their academic work at a higher rate than we expect [1],taking a proactive and forward-thinking approach to integrating GenAI into engineeringeducation is becoming increasingly important. Such an approach will not only equip studentswith the ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs but also encourage them to explore itslimitations and ethical and professional implications.In this case study, the authors explore the integration of two GenAI-based writing assignmentsinto a senior-level design course.

For instance, Rae had led several impact talks in their sixth-grade classroom,which they said helped students develop new ways of thinking about design problems: “My students learned different skillsets and mindsets depending on the type of design talk we engaged in. For example, in the impact talks students learned how to evaluate the ethics of engineering choices by considering the position of power different stakeholders have in a project and how the outcome could affect them. This is not a skill often asked of students in the regular curriculum, particularly at the elementary level.”Rae’s comments point to

BME programs often link primary design learning outcomes to capstone courses,creating an opportunity to integrate health equity concepts into the curriculum. However,capstone courses encounter specific curricular challenges.
