Occupational therapy students are asked to build a prototype ofa custom assistive technology (AT) device and provide a training manual for this original design.An expectation of this assignment is that the occupational therapy students articulate theinspiration for their low technology device and how they envision this will increase ease andindependent participation in an individual’s valued task or activity. The prototypes are expectedto be well-constructed, safe, and easy to use and do what the student says it will do. In creatingtheir prototype, the occupational therapy students focus on universal design, rather than designfor an individual. This assignment was developed as a kinesthetic learning

approaches to discipline-specific curriculum reform to keeppace with the rapidly changing landscape. In 2017, our department launched a new initiative to integrate professional practice intocurriculum in real time. Each year, multigenerational biomedical engineering (BME) teams ofupper level undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and faculty interview post graduatestakeholders to identify critical professional and technical skills for recent graduates. Informationfrom these interviews are then used to inform the development of short, 1-credit modules, for earlycareer BME undergraduates. The purpose of this study is to analyze data collected from 63 BMEstakeholder interviews over three years (2017-2019). Specifically, we ask,1. What are

Motivations and ExpectationsStudents largely chose to participate in the CPM program because of the opportunities to gainexperience integrating engineering and medicine, interacting with clinicians and clinical units,and alignment with their career goals. Survey results supported similar reasons reported in theinterviews. Respondents reported interest in witnessing first-hand how engineering andmedicine interact and playing an active role as a CPM. The prospect of advancing their careergoals was another popular motivation for becoming a CPM. Regardless of whether studentswere interested in pursuing medicine (n=8), dentistry (n=1), medical device industry (n=5), orconsulting/technical services (n=3) at the time they participated in the CPM program
