Purpose: Teaching and learning statistical signal processing in Biomedical Engineering Degrees poses challenges for both students and teachers. Students often perceive signal processing subjects as demanding and somewhat unattractive, with failure rates several times higher than that of other courses. The aim of this work is to address the…

Challenge: Health equity is rarely included in traditional biomedical engineering curricula, leaving students unprepared to design inclusive healthcare solutions. Novel Initiative: To address this critical gap, we developed "Health Equity in Engineering Design," the first course at our institution for undergraduate biomedical engineering…

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to determine when students deepen their conceptual understanding of mathematical modeling during a one-semester course in biomedical engineering that uses the constructivist problem-based learning (PBL) framework. The study hypothesizes that concept maps, as a form of assessment, would show increased complexity…

Challenge: As biomedical engineers revolutionize medicine, biomedical engineering programs must adapt to the diverse learning styles of the current student population. Students are learning in new ways and instructional strategies need to be adopted. Novel Initiative: Understanding generational attributes is crucial for developing effective…
