After talking with the engineers at Infinity, I wanted to create laboratory experiments that were relevant to real world industrial applications and teach students to think objectively with any problem they faced. Since industrial applications are always changing, I wanted the students to have a good base to revert back to, but also teach them to expand the base code to more complicated designs. To accomplish this objective, my laboratory exercises consisted of a basic format that gave the students fundamental code to start from and then required the students to expand the code to accomplish more complex tasks.” Based on lessons

The course is designed to help students transition from a science-oriented highschool way of thinking to an engineering point of view. In particular, students that participate inthe BME section in this course are introduced to and charged with utilizing the engineeringdesign process to solve open-ended problems. Following this course, opportunities for exploringdesign can be found both within BME laboratory courses and in the parallel lecture courses.
