The foundation of the curriculum is the engineering design studio, which meetsfour hours per day, four days per week.

sciencesare taught alongside clinical sciences [4]. This approach has been shown to improve both studentknowledge and clinical skills [5, 6]. In an undergraduate engineering curriculum verticalintegration has previously been used to improve student engagement through concurrent teachingand utilization of the concepts. More specifically, in an engineering design course a combinationof professional, ethical, technical, or communication skills are both taught and used [7, 8]. Vertical integration can give students exposure to design skills prior to a fourth yearcapstone project; yet, it does not inherently provide a context for the experience. Industry,service learning, or academic research could all fill this criterion. Industry or service

. Moreover, students mustalso be cognizant of the clinical perspective, both of the medical staff and the patient. This requiresstudents to bridge multiple disciplines with different pedagogical frameworks. In addition to thesechallenges, medical technology and knowledge is constantly and rapidly evolving, causing some contentto become obsolete before graduation. Therefore, it is imperative that BME students develop knowledgeacquisition, integrative thinking, and problem-solving skills in order to prepare for and adapt to thebreadth and pace of the field.Drawing inspiration from medical education, problem-based learning (PBL) has emerged as an effectivestrategy for mitigating these challenges in BME education [1-3].

However, students may begin capstone without the knowledge, skills, and confidencerequired for engineering design success. With these shortcomings in mind, we integrated designexperiences across our undergraduate BME curriculum and evaluated student designperformance and self-reported confidence toward design throughout.

Integrating design into the first semester exposes students to the complex process of creating,assessing, selecting, and realizing an initial prototype [7, 8]. By incorporating a fun foam coredesign project, students gain exposure to the design process such that many of them arecomfortable designing their own equipment for their final project. More

Concept questions were designed tohelp students learn to connect detailed course content with their outside experiences, othercourses in the curriculum, and their own career goals. Some of these questions asked students toreflect on and self-assess their own learning processes. Practice problems were similar tohomework and test problems.

We speculate that this increase in studentresponse was also a result of two indirect, yet beneficial, changes that were a result of thecourse structure change in 2015. 1) More direct and immediate feedback was given tostudents as a result of the increased student to instructor ratio (lecture faculty available inall lab sections, along with lab coordinator and two teaching assistants); providing thefaculty an opportunity to adjust the content to
