If the feedback is intended to be used fora research paper or study, ethics approval will be required to harvest the information withinBrightspace.Possibilities for Further Course Development  Perform ongoing maintenance and solicit regular feedback  Design assessment tools such as mini quizzes  Create additional training videos

Modeling of preclinical screening of pharmaceuticals commonly requires in-vivo techniques.Even as the in-vivo techniques are currently indispensable, they suffer from myriad limitations,e.g., low throughput, long trial periods, ethical concerns, and complications associated with cross-species result transfer and validation. As a result, in-vitro models for screening of pharmaceuticalsare gaining increasing attention to create devices with high throughputs and improve the efficiencyof preclinical trials. Nonetheless, some in-vitro models (e.g., those based on microfluidics) mayfail to replicate conditions present in the body and thus

Individual and Group Assignments: In the first five weeks of the course, students were assigned individual assignments primarily based on computer aided drafting (CAD) software where each student mock up their cosmetic and functional designs. In addition to that, individual assignments on ethics, intellectual property, and professional development were assigned. From the sixth week, students worked in their project groups and the group assignment varied from fabrication of their final CAD designs to design review presentations.8.

At each stage of careertransition, Andrew encountered a startling gap between his expectations and assumptions aboutprofessional work, on one hand, and his lived experience of that work, on the other. Fortunately,Andrew’s personal characteristics (including personality, work ethic, attitude, etc.) likely gavehim an advantage in these situations, allowing him to develop strategies to survive and even thrivewhen faced with ambiguous job roles, incalcitrant coworkers, and sharp increases inresponsibility.

Finally, character isdisplayed through such behaviors as fulfilling commitments in a timely manner, discerning andpursuing ethical practices, and contributing to society as an active citizen.

Engineering Curriculum Abstract In addition to providing the technical expertise required to solve 21st century problems, theengineers of 2020 will be expected to adapt to a continuously evolving environment while oper-ating outside the limits of their discipline and remaining ethically grounded. Their undergraduatetraining must therefore be designed to nurture engineers to transcend traditional disciplinaryboundaries, and to communicate, transfer knowledge, and collaborate across technical and non-technical boundaries. One approach to this challenge is to incorporate biomimicry or bio-inspireddesign into the engineering curriculum.
