Engineering managers will need to focus on developingskills in AI oversight, ethical use of AI-generated data, and integrating AI tools with human-centricdecision-making processes. The future work environment will emphasize collaboration betweenhuman intelligence and AI capabilities, where strategic thinking, creativity, and ethicalconsiderations in AI application become paramount [13]. Generative AI's impact extends beyondmere automation, heralding a new era of enhanced creativity, efficiency, and innovation inengineering management. By embracing these changes, organizations can unlock unprecedentedopportunities for growth

Each 4-week unit consisted offour key topics: needs identification, design requirements, regulatory, and ethics. The coursefocused on understanding these existing devices and their limitations, not on designing a newdevice. To scale up the needs-finding benefits of traditional clinical immersion courses whileavoiding some of the restrictions [5]-[7], students accessed the voice of the customer (VoC)through pre-recorded video interviews conducted by the instructor. Each unit included 4-5 VoCinterviews with medical device users and clinicians, which
