What are the main challenges in completing the project?In addition, a third point must be addressed by each individual on each team. 3) Reflect on your own individual role in the project.Assignment five is not accompanied by formal lectures, but rather is meant to induce individualand group meta-analysis of the design process.

Toward the goal of defining research aims, asystematic approach that can be applied is the 8D Methodology. This methodologyconsists of finding ideas that meet defined solution patterns (dimensions). Eight maindimensions are broken up into sub-dimensions to facilitate in the categorization andgeneration of ideas.

It has been recognized in academia and industry alike that engineersrequire an ever-broadening skill set in order to function competitively. Considering theincreasingly globalized nature of the industry, an understanding of other cultures andstrong cross-cultural communication skills will prove invaluable. Understandably

programs are struggling to keep their curriculum current and meet thechanging needs of today’s technically based society. Every engineering program needs toproduce technically savvy engineers prepared for the workforce (or graduate school) whileteaching them professional skills such as teamwork, leadership, and communication. BecauseBiomedical Engineering (BME) programs must include the ability “to solve the problems at theinterface of engineering and biology” and “the ability to make measurements on and interpretdata from living systems” [1] BME programs often have more difficulties including the requisiteengineering topics necessary to meet ABET criteria. A good biomedical engineer must have atleast a basic understanding of mechanical
