The cornerstone of the program isa summer residency course, Biomedical Engineering Practice and Innovation (“BEPI”).BEPI was designed to build upon foundational coursework by providing experiential learningopportunities in all program focus areas: Imaging, Instrumentation, and Translational TissueEngineering. BEPI combines seven weeks of online coursework with two three-day weekends inresidency at the main campus and hospital in Baltimore, for a total of twelve sessions taught bymultiple engineering and clinical faculty, each experts in their respective fields.

Such mutual learning interaction between students is beneficial because students will either be required to articulate their knowledge of a subject in ways that another student can understand or will profit from getting an alternative perspective from a peer on how to approach a problem.For the author’s courses, students are provided a variety of ways to demonstrate learning of thecourse material. The HW problem sets have typically counted for around 25% of the coursegrade. All courses include a laboratory and/or project component that counts for about 25% ofthe course grade, while two exams and a cumulative final count for the remaining 50%. Sincethe LON

, Electrical and Mechanicalengineering degree programs have historically required their students to complete a coordinatedMultidisciplinary Engineering Laboratory sequence.​2​ Finally, multidisciplinary capstone courseshave been experimented with at CSM since the early nineteen nineties.​3​ Even with this strongfoundation, there are significant challenges to running a successful, multidisciplinary capstoneprogram.Capstone programs differ from other multidisciplinary courses in several ways. Freshmanexperiences don’t have the same expectations to deliver discipline specific technical content thatare required at the senior level. For that reason, a closer parallel to multidisciplinary capstonemight be found in multidisciplinary laboratory sequences

challenges of this environment is that on a given day, all classroomsare used at about ninety percent capacity. Hence, we do not have the facilities orinfrastructure to move our massive amounts of introductory physics courses into a studioor laboratory based setting for some of the larger scale pedagogy initiatives. Further, withsuch saturation of our overall facilities, professors are typically never in the sameclassroom twice per day, making even tasks such as carrying demonstrations orspontaneous live experiments cumbersome. The setting at Wentworth is not unique andwe believe that our findings will benefit similarly sized institutions that are consideringthe inclusion of MLM content in their introductory physics sequence.

Soils are inherentlyrandom media and the information on the material properties and in situ conditions will alwaysbe incomplete if based only on small sample lab testing. Unlike other branches of engineeringwhere practitioners have greater control over the materials they use, geotechnical engineeringdepends heavily on field exploration and experience. Unfortunately, geotechnical engineeringeducation has been mainly focused on a limited number of small sample laboratory experimentsbecause it is geographically and cost prohibitive to conduct actual field tests for the students.Currently, there is a prevalent lack of an affordable and reliable way to educate and train studentson the

(Design and testing of CE, CB) The following two projects illustrate how the lab projects were structured. Sample Lab Exercises The purpose of the first project was for the students to use their understanding of basic op amp circuits to design a linear transfer function circuit which converts a DC input voltage over a certain range into a DC output voltage from 0 to 0.5, 1, or 1.7 volts. The linear transfer function circuit consisted of a non-inverting amplifier, a summing amplifier, and a voltage follower providing a DC reference voltage using a Zener diode. The objectives of this laboratory were to design, simulate, construct, and test the op amp circuit designs outside of the classroom and then assemble these sub
