In the online lab, students from two different engineering programs (mechatronics engineering and industrial engineering) were paired together using Zoom’s breakout rooms thus engaging in PL. Also, each student was issued a kit of parts necessary for the physical implementation of the lab designs off campus. Student pairs that finished their labs early were required to help other pairs.

The public health topics of health disparities (HD) and social determinants of health (SDOH) are becoming vital components to medical curriculum engaging medical students as socially responsible physicians that can mitigate health inequities in their future profession. As these programs adapt to the inclusion of public health topics, as should engineering curriculum that relies deeply on the collaboration with clinical experts for translation of engineering health technologies. These shared principles may improve the ability for engineers on multidisciplinary teams to become competent on the social responsibilities of translating DDS to people and how they may impact health inequities.
