Sciencestudents prepared the instruments for the experiments (a container and pellets of sodiumhydroxide), arranged the setup of the experiment, designed the schedule of collectingreadings, and interpreted the pressure readings. Engineering students prepared the necessaryhardware components such as pressure sensors, microcontrollers, display monitors, andprinted circuit boards. The whole team worked together to develop and deploy the system,which included applying soldering to connect various hardware components to the circuitboard, installing the electronic parts into the glass container, and writing computer programsto read the values of the pressure sensor, to perform necessary calculations and to display thereadings on the

Course learning outcomes includedtopics in design and intellectual property, among a range of other foundational areas.Coursework included a major team-based, design-and-build project. This project had a slightlycompetitive aspect in that bonus points were awarded to the team that built the best project.Three years ago, one of the authors conceived and implemented a “class patent” system wherebyteams could write and submit an application to patent a project idea. By patenting an idea, a teamcould hope to gain competitive advantage in achieving the best project. As a pedagogical study, we sought to determine the effects of the class patent system

In addition to providingscholarship for twenty promising students, the S-STEM grant allowed a team of faculty frommultiple disciplines to develop and test new student support mechanisms and programs at theengineering technology programs in an urban large public university with a diverse studentpopulation. The goal of the program is to enrich and enhance students experience during theirhigher-education tenure and ensure their success after they graduate and join the professionalworkforce by preparing them to be technically competent and professionally ready

Mr. Pratt provided initial input as to thebest on-campus location site for the project, and how best to design the system to comply withthe grant requirements. Because the grant was for a maxim of $60,000, we knew additionalfunding was going to be required.

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
