INTRODUCTIONEngineers, clinicians and patients often struggle to find balance between innovative technologyand the human side of medical care. Graduate level educational programs dedicated to teachingbiomedical innovation have seen significant growth in the last decade [1-7]. In addition, the fieldof biomedical engineering has seen a dramatic escalation in activity over the past 20 yearsleading to innovative medical devices and procedures.

Our efforts have been augmented by three research grantsa, which haveenabled us to focus on the retention of freshman engineering students. As a result, we havedeveloped several tools, which are being implemented both by us and by colleagues at otheruniversities. We also have introduced a number of promising initiatives.While our efforts offer the potential of reducing attrition, in the long run we believe that we mustdo much better in fulfilling the expectations and needs of our students. To do this means seriouslyaddressing the “structure” and “culture” of the engineering educational experience, anddeveloping additional creative

HBCUs are institutions of higher learning, whose principal mission is to educateAfrican Americans. Based upon this objective, there are two significant questions to beaddressed by this research: a) Is it possible, through innovative measures, for the current set of HBCUs throughout the United States to educate African Americans on a massive scale? b) What is the best way to design the format and presentation of

These control mechanisms canachieve results but may also undermine classroom cohesion, encourage an adversarialatmosphere, and be less effective than alternate approaches such as those based on leadershiptraining and research. This paper reconsiders engineering education through a leadershipperspective where teachers voluntarily relinquish control, seek influence over authority, nurturecooperation over compliance, pursue projects and activities in partnership rather than inisolation, and work to establish an environment of mutual trust. These characteristics ofleadership-based education are highly compatible with many current trends in
