Michigan. She has a B.E. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Dayton (2003) and a Ph.D. in Engineering Edu- cation from Purdue University (2008). Her research focuses on strategies for design innovations through divergent and convergent thinking as well as through deep needs and community assessments using design ethnography, and translating those strategies to design tools and education. She teaches design and en- trepreneurship courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels, focusing on front-end design processes.Dr. Lisa R. Lattuca, University of Michigan Lisa Lattuca is Professor of Higher Education, a member of the Core Faculty in the Engineering Education Research Program, and holds a courtesy

four informational BR200 modules in Moodle. These enhance-ments were in place for the Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 sessions. While the instructor rated him-self as very computer-literate, this RISE course proved very challenging. That continued whenthe instructor implemented more RISE principles during the compressed 12-week fall 2020BR200 course. It truly was like teaching a new course for the first time!RISE introduced faculty to the tools needed to skillfully design and deliver courses for this nextphase in higher education.7 Dynamic facilitators who were experts in online learning led it.Faculty built elements of their online course(s) while learning and using research-informed,instructional best practices.

did not explicitly capture the “analysis” and“modeling” aspects of this ABET criterion because they do not necessitate the design or creationof something new. As these terms lend themselves easily to research efforts in BME (e.g.,proteomics analysis or cardiovascular disease modeling), exploring the degree to whichundergraduate students are cognizant of these aspects of the field may yield important insightsinto a student’s choice to attend graduate school or pursue a research-based career.d) Making Measurements on and Interpreting Data from Living Systems This was the only criterion for which an analog was not identified in the student-provided definitions of BME. It represents an important differentiation from all other ABET

,institution-specific requirements can have a dominating impact on the depth/breadth balance andhow they are attained. As a primary example, many large engineering schools were forced tomake challenging, required curricular alterations when state legislatures required a reduction ofhours while maintaining ABET engineering hours for accreditation. These changes necessitatedreduction of the requirements for fundamental science and traditional engineering courses fromother departments to make room for courses with heavy design content, societal context, andintegrated communication skills.Due to these changes, the curriculum has become increasingly rigid, which limits students’opportunities to deeply explore technical content. To ensure depth, many
