BMEN 1025 - Computer-Aided Design & Fabrication
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2021 / Spring 2022
Introduces engineering drawing techniques through an modern computer aided design (CAD) software, and fabrication of some of these designs. The course will begin with an introduction of spatial visualization skills, then an in-depth introduction to Solidworks, an industry standard CAD software tool, along with introduction to fabrication processes including laser cutting, 3D printing, casting and injection molding, and 3D scanning will be completed. Additional topics include geometric design and tolerancing techniques and design for manufacturing.
BMEN 2010 - Biomaterials
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2021 / Spring 2022
Introduces the science and engineering of biomaterials, with an emphasis on biomechanical aspects. Addresses the design, fabrication, testing, applications and performance of synthetic and natural materials that are used in a wide variety of biomedical prosthetics, implants and devices. In addition to attending lectures, students will conduct a laboratory experiment and a case study. Recommended restriction: Students in fourth semester of Biomedical Engineering curriculum or higher.
BMEN 3030 - Bioinstrumentation
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022
This course will provide an overview of instrumentation systems used in clinical medicine and biomedical research. Systems for measuring biologic signals will be discussed including biopotentials, stress and strain, pressure, temperature, and optical properties to interpret data from living systems. There will be applications to engineering design, including a semester-long design project that incorporates the interactions between living and non-living systems. There will also be discussion of ethical and regulatory issues related to bioinstrumentation. Recommended restriction: for students in sixth semester of Biomedical Engineering curriculum or higher.
GEEN 1400 - Engineering Projects
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2020
First-year students solve real engineering design problems in interdisciplinary teams. Design projects vary by section. Curriculum focuses on iterative design process, teamwork and team dynamics, supporting design with testing and analysis, and technical writing. Completed projects are exhibited at an end-of-semester design expo. Students responsible for contributing towards their design project budget and poster costs, and purchasing safety glasses (approximately $75).
