Relationship to Program Outcomes: This course relates to the Program Outcomes BME: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, and k as stated at: http://undergraduate.eng.uci.edu/degreeprograms/biomedical/mission Course Outcomes / Performance Criteria: Students will: Demonstrate leadership and teamwork skills in a project team environment (BME d) List and define the various steps in bringing a biomedical product from concept to market (BME c) Identify and assess challenges in each of the steps (BME e) Incorporate regulatory and ethical aspects in the team project. (BME f) Articulate the impacts of the projects in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context. (BME h) Design and conduct experiments to verify team project requirements (BME b) Use knowledge in mathematics, statistics, biological sciences, physical sciences, and engineering to solve the problems at the interface of engineering and biology whenever required (BME k) Use the appropriate computer tools to design, model, simulate, and/or operate the team project (BME k) Apply engineering principles and practices to meet the challenges (BME k) Demonstrate oral communication skills in presenting team projects (BME g) Demonstrate written communication skills in documenting team projects (BME g) Establish initial contacts with major, local, and national Biomedical Engineering companies (BME Demonstrate i) knowledge of contemporary issues related to biomedical engineering (BME i)
Identify relevant technical conferences, workshops, biomedical trade shows, and professional societies to engage in life-long learning (BME i) Prerequisites By Topic: Lecture Topics: Understanding of fundamentals of biomedical device and system product design processes and hands on experience in classroom project teams. Introduction to biomedical engineering from bench to market. Fundamental product design tools. Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools. Strategies and protocols in product development. Coordination and leadership in product development team. Design for quality, usability, manufacturability, reliability, and safety. Food and Drug Administration approval process and regulatory issues. Ethics and human factors in biomedical engineering. Licensing, patents, copyrights, and trade secrets. Market forecast and economic analysis. Meets for 3 hours of lecture each week for 10 weeks.
