2010-Present (Spring Course)
Creative application of bioengineering and design
principles to solving clinically relevant design
problems. Team-based development, construction
and evaluation of design prototypes in accordance
with design theory. Students present results to faculty
jury and external collaborators through written
reports and oral presentations.
