This may suggest that actively undergoing theneeds-finding process helps to solidify understanding and increase confidence in this early stageof the engineering design process, as similarly reported by other programs6. Informalconversations with participants indicated that participation in the BMEA was the first time theywere exposed to entrepreneurial/business concepts, which may be reflected in the reportedincrease in understanding and confidence in these areas at the

As a bioengineeringdepartment, we have also included design thinking within our required, introductorybioengineering course since 2014, as well as, two newly developed elective Biodesign coursesstarted in 2018. Our goal is to determine if our intervention has made an impact on the designthinking mindset of engineering students as reflected in their culminating design experience

were normalized for each major. They were divided by the total number ofenrolled students in that specific major for that academic year-. This normalization reflects the percentage ofstudents in a major that attended or were recruited. In some cases, this percentage is higher than 100%, due tothe presence of pre-major students in both attendance and recruitment numbers. Pre-major students are notconsidered students of a specific major, but often reflect a desire for a specific major. The use of majorenrollment instead of total enrollment was intentional as the scope of the work looks explicitly to understandundergraduate students in their major. It also allowed identifying instances in which a major went above theirenrollment numbers

Practice problems were low-stakes, “lightly graded” (for completion only) problems that were similar to homework and testproblems. For the first unit of the course, students were required to complete Portfolio 2(blended) to expose them to the active learning–based style. This experience allowed them tomake an informed choice of their preferred portfolio for Units 2, 3, and 4. A student choosing thetraditional portfolio was instructed to complete only the homework and test for the unit. Studentswho were undecided were allowed to complete the low-stakes activities and choose

, BME has been recognized as an engineering discipline unique in itspurpose and practice. Early on, BME was recognized for being more deeply aligned withtraditional science, biology in particular, than other engineering disciplines [4]. BME’s uniqueposition is illustrated in the varied structures of BME programs at institutions around the world.BME programs stem from electrical, mechanical, and materials engineering departments andmany programs partner with medical schools [1]. Across different institutions, BME career pathsvary, ranging from medical school, graduate school, the medical device industry, thepharmaceutical industry, and more.

The quantitativemethod will involve assessing student performance and perception. Entrance surveys, exitsurveys, and course evaluations will be used to collect data. The qualitative method willcomprise interviews with students, course instructors, and internship mentors. Surveys andinterview questions have been developed by working with Northwestern University’s Center forAdvancing Learning & Teaching. The results of the analysis will be then used to reflect on thecurriculum and form a basis for possible future revisions.

Based on this feedback a more formal assessment of how the course impacts thestudent’s interest is needed. The main goal of the course is to help students realize the potential areasthat their engineering degrees could be used. To work towards the impact of the course and obtainstatistical assessment, a survey will be developed following based on an intrinsic MotivationInventory (IMI). Questions will be created that ask the students to reflect on how each emphasis areahas impacted their interest on the topics discussed.

Perceived academic self-efficacy has been increasingly considered as a highly effectivepredictor of students’ motivation and persistence [6, 7], as well as an important contributor to theiracademic development [4, 5, 8]. Career decision-making self-efficacy is of equal, if not greaterimportance in engineering education, as it reflects students’ ability to make an informed decisionabout a career path to pursue in the process

Guest lecturers and a field trip to a localmedical device start-up company were incorporated to illustrate real-life applications of theconcepts presented in class. At several points in the 6-week course, students were asked to reflecton the talks or activities to evaluate what they knew before, what they learned, what they foundinteresting, and what they hoped to learn next [2]. This process of self-reflection and evaluationnot only helped students identify topics they had learned but also determined what they wantedto continue studying. These reflections also helped instructors identify how to improve thelessons and better explain the theory to the

Research Questions Student perceptions are equally as important as organizational definitions when seekingto cultivate a shared understanding of the field; as students of BME, they will become the nextpractitioners of BME. Cheville’s assertion above also suggests that student definitions mayindicate how the perceptions held by educators are reflected in their philosophy and teachingapproach [10]. Understanding how students see a field also has important implications forrecruitment and retention (e.g., students may be less likely to persist in a degree program if theirperception of the field is grossly different than that being promoted by the department).However, student perceptions of BME have
