followed learning outcomes, and integrated learningwith team teaching of modules. Their response was to revamp the curriculum to be highlyintegrated and focused on problem-based learning to develop transferable and conceptual skills(Gomes, et al., 2006). Another study at the University of Barcelona looked at adapting theirchemical engineering curriculum to be more student-oriented and structured around theundergraduate and master’s degrees. They changed their curriculum gradually to have moreemphasis on ethics, feedback, and collaborative learning. Their findings were that although moretime consuming, both students and teachers responded positively (Iborra, et al., 2014). A similarstudy was completed at Newcastle University, and resulted in using

Under the proposed changes, accredited BME programs will beexpected to develop diverse teams of engineers that are not only comfortable in the clinicalenvironment, but also “recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineeringsituations” and have the ability to identify “the ongoing need for additional knowledge andlocate, evaluate, integrate, and apply this knowledge appropriately.”2For many engineering disciplines, teaching students how to find and use journal articles, patents,and standards ensures that they will have a relatively complete understanding of the professionalinformation environment.3 However, BME students entering the workforce
