Students defined design requirements, generated evolutionarysolutions through multiple iterations, and demonstrated the utility of scientific literature byapplying knowledge to enhance their designs. This approach facilitated a deeper exploration ofbiomedical technology, involving critical analysis and improvement of materials, methods, andmanufacturing techniques.Seventeen students participated in the project, divided into six groups, each assigned specifictopics related to wearable and implanted technologies. Over 14 weeks, students followed astructured process, making presentations associated with three design iterations, showcasing theirprogress, and receiving feedback from a teaching team consisting of the

. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024Engineering Design Integrated Tissue Engineering Course Module: Scleraxis Tendon Bioreactor Project Abstract Increased exposure to engineering design projects during undergraduate engineeringeducation has gained attraction over the past years. In addition to the capstone senior design courseofferings, Biomedical Engineering programs increasingly incorporate standalone engineeringdesign courses into the curriculum as early as freshman year. These promising attempts emphasizethe importance of reinforcing engineering design practices. However, it is still a challenge toaccommodate engineering design projects into field-specific courses

Faculty respondents in a 2019 bioengineering design education workshop reported thatbioengineering departments have specific strengths in teaching interdisciplinary knowledge,communication, client needs, human anatomy and physiology, biological constraints, andinteraction with clinicians [26]. The fact that bioengineering applications are broad and open-ended casts a wide net for the types of projects which end up being proposed and run throughbioengineering senior design courses. This variety presents a challenge for faculty who deliversenior design courses in bioengineering to ensure consistent

Thiscollaborative approach allows UG students to glean insights from a more diverse andcomprehensive range of graduate students, fostering relationships that might otherwise remainunrealized. In the context of fostering collaborative relationships between graduate and UG students,implementing an innovative-based learning (IBL) program serves as a catalyst for synergy. TheIBL program involves interdisciplinary projects that require collaboration between graduate andundergraduate students. These projects provide opportunities for innovation, addressing real-world problems, and leveraging the diverse skills of each student.
