manufacturing, biomechanics, and other areas.Therefore, undergraduate BME students need intensive practical training on biomedical toolsand equipment to adequately prepare them for industrial careers. It is expected that upongraduation, most students would seek opportunities in industry [1]. Laboratories offer therequired real-world experience that is reported to significantly impact students’ learningexperience when integrated into the engineering curriculum [2].However, the use of physical laboratories comes with high monetary implications forinstitutions in terms of equipment acquisition, equipment maintenance, and staffingrequirements, especially in a rapidly evolving field like BME. Despite these challenges, thereremains an increasing industrial

Approach toExploring Health Equity in Biomedical Engineering SolutionsIntroductionMotivation: Health equity entails reducing health disparities to provide all people an equally highstandard of health [1]. Biomedical Engineering (BME), with further emphasis on health equitythroughout the design process, is well-positioned to produce medical innovations that improvehealth and address inequities. Specifically, medical innovators and educators are called to includeconsideration of health care access at all stages of design [2]. As such, BME educators have begunto identify ways to integrate health equity throughout undergraduate curricula ([3], [4]). Outliningbroad integration of health disparity modules within core courses may impel programs to

in writing scientific manuscripts are being developed [1-2], but its use as an instructional aid for teaching scientific writing is less understood [3]. Forbiomedical engineering (BME), technical writing is particularly important: they need to masterboth engineering and scientific approaches to written communication across multiple formats tovarious audiences. We have previously developed evidence-based technical writing modules,tailored to BME students, and vertically integrated them throughout our core curriculum [4].These modules were developed before widespread AI availability. To develop guidelines oninstructional AI use, we first need to understand students’ 1) perception on its utility and ethicaluse and 2) prior and current use of AI

This initiative aims to foster the development of an EM inundergraduate biomedical engineering students under the well-studied paradigm of REUs.As part of the program, seventeen students who participated in biomedical engineering REUprograms as traditional REU or eREU students at one of the three partnering institutions wereasked to engage in an activity where they defined EM through the creation of a concept map.Concept maps were selected as an assessment method due to their ability to directly assessstudents' perceptions of EM, as compared to indirect assessments such as self-reported surveys.These concept maps were assessed using categorical scoring with six

The course filled an urgent need in the Bioengineeringgraduate curriculum while the design and content of this course empowered participants toachieve the course learning objectives. Through this course, participants developed an increasedmastery of pedagogical theory and practices, including active learning, inclusive teaching, andmore. Further, through the final project, participants solidified their knowledge by applyingcourse content to their own areas of interest. In the future, we plan to evaluate both the efficacy of the course and the longer-term impacts ofcourse participants as graduate TAs within the broader bioengineering community. We

engineering students feel underprepared when going into the workforce, due to a lack ofreal-world application of the college curriculum and the lack of necessary skills to confidentlymake engineering and business decisions [1-3]. Consequently, the transition between college andone’s first job can be difficult for many graduates [4]. This causes many to seek jobs outside ofthe engineering profession altogether; according to one study, only one-third of engineeringgraduates seek jobs in an engineering field [5]. Furthermore, a study by the Carnegie Foundationfound that engineering schools primarily focus on the acquisition of technical knowledge, leavinglittle attention to real-world application or preparing for employment [6].To combat this issue, the

Impact of a Clinical Observations and Needs Finding Course on Biomedical Engineering Education OutcomesAbstractIn the field of biomedical engineering, needs identification and solution development are animportant element of the design process. In our undergraduate curriculum, a course was designedto allow clinical observation and provide an opportunity for students to learn about engineeringdesign and engage with clinicians via completing rotations in medical facilities near our campus.While this type of course is not unique, evaluating its efficacy is not simple. Given the broadrange of institutional resources available- such as proximity to a medical school, or residencyprograms- reporting the quality of such courses within the
