BME 470 Design Capstone I

Engages Biomedical Engineering students in a system design experience, integrating the various concepts they have learned in prior courses, to solve clinical/biological problems identified through clinical immersion. The course provides a foundation in team leadership and project management and emphasizes the skills necessary to function as a biomedical engineer in any organization. Students will 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 appropriate to the discipline as part of a design team. This is the first course in the BME design capstone sequence.
