  1. Lehigh UniversityProf. Svetlana Tatic-Lucic Workshop on BME Teaching of Innovation, Design & Entrepreneurship

  2. Course Title: BioE 110Elements of Bioengineering (3cr) • Course Goal: • Give sophomore level students a broad overview of bioengineering disciplines (biomechanics, biomaterials, medical imaging, biotechnology, tissue engineering). Get students excited and interested in pursuing a career in bioengineering/biomedical engineering. • Course Emphasis: • Provide students with a strong fundamental understanding of how engineering tools, techniques and methodologies are used to analyze and understand biological and physiological systems. • Instructional Approach: • Extensive use of illustrative examples to clarify concepts • In-class and out-class use of computational tools (i.e. MATLAB) to develop strong problem solving skills • Incorporation of hands-on physiological learning modules to facilitate educational experience. • Students are required to write and present a report on a current research or industrial topic in bioengineering. Lehigh University

  3. Course Title: BioE 120 Biomechanics(3 cr.) • Biomechanics of tissues • Biomechanics of joints • Biomechanics of gait Course Title: BioE 121 Biomechanics Laboratory (1 cr.) • Study of postural stability • Dynamics of jump • Kinematics of gait • Range of motion • Mechanical properties of bone and muscle Lehigh University

  4. Course Title: BioE 210 Bioelectronics/Biophotonics/BioMEMS Laboratory(6cr) • Design, layout and fabrication of a simple MEMS device with biomedical application (e.g. silicon strain gauge) • Electrophysiology experiments (BioPac modules) • Analysis of several commercially available • Laboratory exercise dedicated to the medical image analysis. Commercially available software will be used to analyze the images obtained from local hospitals. • Optical fiber based biosensors (i.e. to measure glucose concentration) • Interaction of laser with tissues, proteins and other biomolecules • Optical tweezers for measuring viscoelasticity of cytoskeleton fibers in cells • Immunofluorescent microscopy Lehigh University

  5. Novel and/or effective methods used to teach innovation & entrepreneurship • Implement product-driven student project teams in collaboration with local industrial firms and Lehigh’s award-winning Integrated Product development (IPD) program • Create synergism by forming partnerships with science, engineering and business departments to establish a comprehensive bio-related concentrations and bio-related minors programs • Structured Innovative Thinking (SIT) method will be taught to undergraduates Lehigh University

  6. How do you measure outcomes? • Student evaluations before, during and after courses • Professional output (publications, presentations, published abstracts, patents and inventions) • Placement data (internships, graduate programs, professional school, and employment) Lehigh University

  7. Describe a course project or exercise that exemplifies “best practices” • Timely planning of the overall program development that crosses traditional departments and college boundaries • Cultivating industrial partnerships to mentor students and provide real-time problems through entrepreneurial projects • Introduction of seminar courses for the freshmen and sophomores that exposes them early to different aspects of bioengineering Lehigh University
