Thegoal is to provide students with basic information on the technique, to generate interest for thefield, and to prepare them for potential graduate school or careers in the field. The school hasbeen supportive of this project through internal funding for acquisition of new equipment andsupplies and for developing educational material. This paper describes an example of potentialeducational material for engineering students and demonstrates how the

The same could also be done withmathematical modelling and experimental design, two other skills highly valued by academicstakeholders. Another option is to have space in the curriculum for students to take these types ofcourses as an elective from other departments.In terms of suggestions for the broader BME community, it is recognized that there is a need todemystify graduate school options for those interested in BME graduate programs.

-consuming and prone to errors, leading toinefficiencies in assessment and feedback delivery. Additionally, the sheer volume of studentwork generated each term can overwhelm instructors, making it difficult to provide timely andmeaningful feedback to students. This challenge highlights the need for more efficient andautomated methods of documenting and assessing student performance.Numerous studies have been conducted to improve this process. For example, web-based toolswere developed in [6, 7] to reduce the workload associated with program direct assessment.Additionally, an online database was introduced in [8] to integrate ABET direct assessment data.Microsoft spreadsheets have also been reported as beneficial for direct assessment purposes

Starting in the 1990s, one of the major modifications to engineering educationcurricula in the United States was the increased emphasis on design as a distinctive element ofengineering practice [5]. Most engineering curricula now include at least one capstone designcourse that introduces the practical side of engineering design to address previous concerns thatgraduates were unprepared for industry upon completion of an engineering program [6].However, these courses alone are not facilitating the desired retention gains. They are likely veryeffective in communicating the basics of the engineering design process but are not able
