perceived usability, tool efficacy, and utility of the VR lab modulepredict users’ perceived satisfaction with the learning experience?(3) How effective was the VR lab module in teaching the key concepts represented by themodule?Literature ReviewLaboratories: Laboratories are foundational to engineering education as they serve tointroduce students to existing practices in the field to prepare them for future careers. Thus,since the inception of engineering as a field, physical laboratories have been extensively usedas learning environments in undergraduate and graduate programs to prepare students forengineering professional practice [1, 8]. There are three types of engineering laboratories:physical, VR, and remote laboratories. Physical

approach may leave students unsure about potential careers [3], since itoften does not include integrating innovation, ideation, and developing new products, which arecrucial areas within the cutting-edge BME field [1], [4].One way to improve BME students’ confidence in their career preparation has been to introducethem to undergraduate research in BME-specific areas, such as research experience forundergraduates (REU) programs [5], [6], [7], as a way to encourage them to pursue graduate-level research and apply their curricular knowledge to practice [2], [8]. Generally, REUprograms have encouraged development of communication skills through both oral presentationand writing technical research, laboratory and computer skills, and collaboration

large public state university and taking part in the same researchproject. The internship was an 8-week program in the Biomedical Engineering (BME)Department funded by the Massachusetts Life Science Center (MLSC). All three students wereworking in the same lab co-hosted and mentored by the two laboratory Principal Investigators, aswell as undergraduate and graduate students in the lab. In-depth interviews with the three internsand their parents/caregivers were conducted and analyzed to understand parental relationships,mentorship relationships, and components of the home environment in developing STEMidentity and interest. Faculty mentors were also interviewed and provided perspectives on skillsets and confidence coming into the internship and

She is also interested in broadening participation and retention in BME. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025 Industry Mentorship Program Brings Increases in BME Internships, Co-Ops, and Career Placement for Undergraduate StudentsIntroduction:The notion that biomedical engineering (BME) students struggle to transition from undergraddirectly to industry positions still persists [1]. This problem has been looked at from a variety ofangles. There are critiques that BME programs and curriculum are too broad which maydisadvantage undergraduates looking for industry positions
