The project course mayinvolve design, but its description indicates that enrolled students are to, “undertake a project thatwill utilize theories to solve problems related to biomedical engineering issues,” so it is notnecessarily directed toward design.At UNILAG the Postgraduate Diploma (PGD) program started in 2013-2014.

Students acknowledge that engaging inundergraduate research is intellectually stimulating, and believe it equips them with the skillsnecessary to tackle future challenges, particularly in solving engineering problems [3].

One way of accomplishing this is through the pursuit of research inmicroelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and the technologies it encompasses.
