which combines somestandard biomedical engineering and modern science laboratory curriculum with a kernel of aCore/Shared Facility developed at Khalifa University – KUSTAR, Abu Dhabi, UAE. An impactof such multi-purpose laboratory on student global engineering competency is discussed within asurvey of the first generation of BME seniors at this start-up university. In the second part of thereport, we outline the initial positive impact of this laboratory facility on the start-up effort of thefirst batch of research-oriented faculty members in the environment where individual start-uppackages are still not a norm. In terms of global preparedness of students and faculty, we suggestthis model and its variations in other engineering disciplines as
