BME 470 Design Capstone I

Allows students completing the Biomedical Engineering curriculum to engage in a system design experience, integrating the various technical concepts they have learned in prior courses, to solve clinical/biological problems identified through their internships. The course imparts a foundation in team leadership and project management and emphasizes the skills necessary to function as a biomedical engineer in any organization, regardless of size. Students will enjoy an experience that closely matches the professional engineering environment as they solve design problems focused on meeting customer needs that include economic, environmental, ethical, safety, and sustainability constraints. Emphasis will be placed on professional communications in oral and written formats. (Pending review by the Academic Affairs Committee.)
