education. This paper presents an undergraduate elective course for biomedicalinnovation. In this course, junior or senior Industrial Engineering (IE) students withoutbiomedicine backgrounds will be asked to team with medical students to develop innovativesolutions for clinical problems. Unlike conventional senior design or a capstone project, this courserequires students to identify a problem in an authentic clinical setting and translate the clinicalproblem into an engineering project. Fifty percent of the credit for the final project will be basedon the analysis of the problem and fifty percent of the credit will be based on the proposed solutionin terms of novelty and technical rationale. This elective course is expected to encourage studentsto

Thecourse objectives are focused on comprehending the multiplicity of factors that lead to anengineering catastrophe, how these decisions/factors are both technical and managerial in nature,and how history tends to repeat itself despite the engineering community’s best efforts. Theseissues are then viewed through the lens of ethical analysis and behavior to highlight for thestudents how ethics is a foundational component of engineering professionalism. The expectedoutcomes center around synthesizing the material presented in the text and during the lectureportion of the class into short in-class writing assignments and a larger paper on risk assessment.These objectives and outcomes were explicitly stated and often repeated to
