The traditionalcohort (Fall 2019 n=9 students) was taught using written feedback, while the VF cohort consistsof three classes (Fall 2021/Spring 2022/ Fall 2022/ n=4/11/20 = 35 total). Two sets of data werecollected from each cohort: analysis of student final projects and video file data.The final project in each class was similar, asking the students to create a model or

to increase students’ technical skills as related to the design process, it also aims to buildconfidence and develop students’ abilities to work not only with their peers but also withinstructors and local clinicians. During the students’ senior years, they are required to take SeniorDesign 1 during the fall semester and Senior Design 2 during the spring semester. As aprerequisite to Senior Design, the Clinical Observations and Needs Finding course is intended tointroduce students to the design process. Projects that are initially developed in ClinicalObservations are intended to be carried to Senior Design, where prototype creation occurs. Thiscourse fits logically into the undergraduate biomedical engineering curriculum, but the

University of Virginia Social and Behavioral Sciences IRB,protocol number 3236.This study was conducted in concert with a second-year course in design for biomedicalengineering students. The course itself was focused on the development of software, hardware,and fabrication skills of particular use to biomedical engineers [3]. These included CAD,microcontrollers, basic circuits, 3D printing, subtractive approaches to prototyping (dependingon semester), and digital image analysis. The course culminated in a closed-ended team-baseddesign project with a physical prototype due at the end.Students would have taken 0 to 3 courses prior to the design course in question. This is becausestudents at our institution enter their major after their first year, and

Research anddesign engineer was the most named job title/role by students across cohorts; however,project/program manager, manufacturing engineer, design quality engineer, and clinical fieldspecialist were also named, albeit at a lower frequency (Appendix D, Table 7).

Project Lead The Way (PLTW), a program dedicated to transformative STEMteaching for K-12 students, focuses on skills relevant to innovation and entrepreneurship such asproblem-solving and critical thinking. The PLTW program, however, has a limited focus on thehumanities which is presumed to turn women and minoritized populations away from STEM [2].In university-level engineering programs, with the heavy technical curricular demands, inclusionof coursework dedicated to innovation and creativity may not always be perceived as logisticallypossible.

In summer of 2022,the overwhelming majority of students participated in a career enrichment experience andnoticeable low participation in industry and research experiences. It remains unknown if this wasan artifact of a summer semester or a COVID-related lag. Anecdotally, it is known that manycompanies and research labs did not recruit in 2021 for 2022 summer positions due to COVID-related budget constraints.Four of the 13 curriculum outcomes were well reflected (>80%) in the high-impact experienceassignments – “attitudes,” “communication,” “teamwork,” and “project management” (AppendixFigure 2).

The concept maps are used to evaluate the evolution of students’ skills in developingmathematical models that describing biological systems and students’ specific contentknowledge as they complete problem-based learning projects. As students gain experiencedeveloping mathematical models to answer open-ended problem-based learning questions, wehypothesize that their conceptual understanding of mathematical modeling and of the biologicalsystems studied will increase. This improved conceptual understanding is reflected by conceptmaps with
