(Dym et al. 2005). At the start of the semester, students self-assemble into teams of 4-5,and each team chooses a lower-income country to explore. Over 14 weeks, teams use their chosencountry as a starting point to work through a cycle of biomedical device design, including broadscoping and needs assessment, problem definition, concept generation and iteration, CADprototyping, and design iteration based on peer, student instructor, and faculty feedback (see Table1). They also examine case studies of (successful and unsuccessful) biomedical device design,learn about healthcare innovation systems, and reflect on key challenges and best practices forbiomedical engineering design.Over 3 consecutive semesters, our students have developed a variety

module. The students are required to write a short reflection covering thefollowing three questions: What are the main points?, How is the material useful to you?, Whatmore information do you think should be included?.LaboratoryThe three-hour laboratory each week developes a diversity of hands-on skills covering the basicsof each discipline and associates the lecture and laboratory exercises toward the guided designproject, a physical prototype of a medical research device. Laboratory topics were developedthrough interactions with and input from our student advisory committee (BSAC), studentsurveys, industry including co-op and employer surveys and the external advisory board. Theskills that were utilized most frequently by students in their

) for the creativity scales todetermine if there were any significant changes pre- and post-REU by item. We saw significantchanges in two items on one of the creativity scales (Creative Identity): “In general, mycreativity is an important part of my self-image” (t=2.000, p=.046); “I am confident that I can becreative in my coursework” (t=2.121, p=.034).Research Question #2: How did participation in the CREATE REU impact student perceptionsof creativity and the research process?Student participants were asked to reflect on how learning about the creative process and itsrelationship with the scientific method had impacted their understanding of research. While 4 ofthe 11 students did not feel that the training impacted their understanding of
