students transition from high school to college, theyoften don’t have explicit knowledge and skills in these areas, which can cause them to struggle morethan is necessary. Higher education institutions have created programs to provide explicit instructionin these areas through classes in “learning to learn,” self-regulation, and self-care. Specific topics inthese classes include metacognitive strategies, time management strategies, goal setting, developinga growth mindset, and practicing self-care techniques such as mindfulness and staying sociallyconnected.Given engineering students have unique experiences and struggles within these different areas, wedecided to build our program within the College of Engineering to address their particular

central purpose was to require students to think about the entire engineering designprocess instead of simply the technical aspects. This was achieved through research into thepractices of the companies involved, including their location, the physical materials used, and thebenefits that the product provides to society. The purpose of this was to encourage the studentsto examine the impacts of these decisions and determine which would be sustainable.With these goals in mind, the following questions were given to the students to answer duringtheir presentations. The questions provided a set of guidelines for the information to cover anddefined one category of assessment for the work of the students. 1. Fundamentals of the Application: What is

Students learn that just because a solution mayappear better for a context they are familiar with doesn’t mean it actually is better for the contextin which the product will be used. By learning about and engaging with the difficulties ofdesigning medical devices for a low-resource hospital, students must also reckon with the rolethat engineering plays in social and economic inequalities, both globally and domestically.Products like medical devices tend to be designed for communities with the most money to payfor them and the most resources to build them, and therefore often can’t meet the needs of thosewho need them the most.With these ideas in mind, the surgical
