The objective of the course and project were to understandDesign Control3, design, implement, and fabricate the prototype of a medical device thataddresses current market need. Student projects were in many different areas includingorthopedic implants, prosthetics, biomaterials, instrumentation and etc. Each group was requiredto produce a working prototype of the proposed design to assess the functionality of the device.For the groups who selected an orthopedic medical device, such as total joint replacement andtrauma implant

Participantsmaintain a blog to capture and reflect on their observations, which also allows them to share theirexperience with the other students. Upon completion of the Bioengineering Clinical Immersionprogram, students are well prepared for the senior design capstone course that emphasizesdevelopment of medical devices conceived from validated end-user needs. This paper alsodiscusses implementation challenges and program modifications, including having medicalstudents team with bioengineering students.2.

increased team discussion time, frequentassessments and additional teamwork factors such as conflict occurrence and resolution will alsobe addressed. The impact that improved teamwork skills may have on students will be evaluatedthrough collection of annual retention data, performance in the capstone design course, andspecific questions related to teamwork readiness on our department’s annual exit survey tograduating students. The impact will be compared to historical student data, in which thetraditional lecture-based introductory course was offered, and used to guide continuousdevelopment of our undergraduate curriculum to prepare our students for future success.References1.

biomedical problems. During biomedical design, a range ofstrategies can be used to identify a problem and to generate and evaluate solutions. At ColumbiaUniversity, we have an established program for teaching biomedical design to undergraduateswhich culminates in our capstone ‘Senior Design’ course. However, no specified designexperience exists for terminal degree BME Master’s students. Design courses are traditionallytaught utilizing a textbook, lectures, and a team design project, with often limited time forinteractions between and among teams and instructors in the classroom. We also recognized thatthe background and educational and professional goals of undergraduates and graduate studentsare unique. Therefore, we saw a valuable opportunity to

, &Lee (2006) found that nearly all workplace problems are complex and ill-structured. Studentsoften only encounter complex ill-defined problems at the end of their four year engineeringprogram and enter the workforce without these critical skills requiring more on the job training.3How can we prepare students to solve these ill-defined complex problems that they willencounter as working engineers? The Vanderbilt-Northwestern-Texas-Harvard/MIT (VaNTH)Engineering Research Center attempted to answer this question in a Biomedical Engineeringcontext. The VaNTH project designed a biotransport engineering curriculum to help studentsdevelop innovation and efficiency.4,5,6 Innovation was operationalized as the adaptive ability toperform well in
