He currently teaches undergraduate courses in bioinstrumentation, physiology, circuit analysis, lab-on-a- chip, and global health. He also serves as the faculty advisor for the Engineering World Health (EWH) Club, and is a member of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) and the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). His research interests involve the development of point-of-care medical technologies, including bioinstrumentation for use in low-resource settings.Dr. Andrew Wellesley Browne, Harvard Medical School, University of Southern California

educational enterprise.To keep engineering courses relevant, faculty often bring in current topics to their undergraduateclasses. In the ideal world (or department), faculty engaged in research will teach undergraduatecourses in the same discipline area. Bringing in research work performed by undergraduatestudents into undergraduate courses has the important benefit that the coursework is still fresh inthe undergraduate student's mind. The key benefit a faculty member has when integratingresearch results from undergraduate students is by observing how the undergraduate researchstudents learn the necessary research material based on the foundation concepts originally usedin the classroom. From these observations, the faculty mentor can determine the

Some ofthe questions asked if the students recommended repetition of an assignment or activity in thefuture. For example, 73% of students recommended repeating the Email homework and theportfolio process. A question given on how much students learned in the classroom, as opposedto learning later through homework and self study, indicated that they learn about 50% of thematerial in the class.I have collected feedback from students in different forms over the recent years.
