Continually Challenged with Integrated Design ProjectsAbstractIntroduction: The undergraduate biomedical engineering (BME) curriculum should preparestudents to confidently approach complex problems, as graduates will enter the workforce in anenvironment of rising healthcare costs, decreasing average life expectancy, and significantsocioeconomic disparities in health outcomes. With this landscape, solutions to contemporaryproblems will require innovative thinking and groundbreaking medical technologies, suggestingthat the future of BME will be increasingly design-oriented. BME curricula generally includelaboratory and project components aimed at preparing students for senior capstone; however,students may begin capstone

be careful of actionsthat can be viewed as belittling, humiliating, ridiculing or shaming of students. It appears criticism,humor and raised voices are viewed as unhelpful by some students.Overall, there appears to be an increase in the number of student complaints. Maybe this is areflection of the increasingly litigious nature of society. Instructors need to evaluate periodicallytheir classroom policies to reflect the reality that expectations in 2020 are not the same as that of20 or 40 years ago, when many of today’s instructors were students.References:[1] C.
