BE 1000 - Introduction to Biomedical Engineering

1 lecture hours 3 lab hours 2 credits
This course introduces students to the biomedical engineering (BE or BME) profession including its unique ethical characteristics. Students learn about career options in BE, in part by working in a team to complete an introductory design project. Topics such as intellectual property and entrepreneurship are also introduced. The formal design process is introduced with emphasis placed on terminology and methodologies applicable to BE. Students are introduced to a number of common design resources and tools. In the laboratory, students develop and demonstrate proficiency in keeping an engineering logbook and working in teams. The design experience for each team cumulates in a memo or report and a presentation that includes the display of a prototype device.
