Conference: 5th Council of Chairs Biomedical Engineering Education Summit; Newark, New Jersey; 29-31 May 2024

生物医学工程学会主席理事会（BMES CoC）-一个由140名系主任组成的机构-共同的使命是改善所有对生物医学工程或生物工程感兴趣的工程专业学生的入学机会和成果，并每三年举行一次教育峰会。资金将支持下一次峰会将于2024年5月29日至31日在新泽西的纽瓦克举行。峰会旨在制定方法，以解决不断变化的学生群体的不同教学，激励和支持需求。在生物医学工程劳动力的建设多样性也将是一个重点，并将在整个计划整合。2024年峰会的重点是包括本科生参与研究，动手准备学生的研究生学习和生物医学劳动力发展-BME计划的主要焦点。主题将包括教学和学习方法，包括在BME教育中使用高影响力实践和包容性方法，使用基于AI的学习工具，编码的未来以及BME研究在学生成绩和行业准备中的作用。从所有合作伙伴收集的首脑会议数据将通过可公开查阅的期刊文章分享。参与者包括来自广泛学习环境的利益相关者，从住宿大学校园到主要为通勤者服务的教育机构和行业。峰会将促进教育工作者产生新的想法，指导方针和最佳实践，广泛受益于学习者，并促进那些在BME学科中代表性不足的人的融入。跨机构和与行业合作伙伴的互动将进一步加强学习，加强学生在新兴工程学科的竞争力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。

The Biomedical Engineering Society Council of Chairs (BMES CoC) - a body of 140 department chairs - shares a mission to improve access and outcomes for all engineering students interested in biomedical engineering or bioengineering and holds an Education Summit every three years. Funding will support the next summit will, held in Newark, New Jersey, 29-31 May 2024. The summit intends to develop approaches to address an evolving student population with different teaching, motivational and support needs. Building diversity in the biomedical engineering workforce will also be a focus and will be integrated throughout the program. The 2024 Summit focuses on including undergraduate participation in research, hands on preparation of students for graduate study and biomedical workforce development - major foci of BME programs. Topics will include teaching and learning approaches, including use of high impact practices and inclusive pedagogies in BME education, uses of AI-based learning tools, the future of coding, and the role of BME research in student outcomes and industry preparedness. Summit data collected from all partners will be shared through publicly accessible journal articles. Participants include stakeholders from broad learning environments, from residential college campuses to primarily commuter-serving educational institutions and industry. The summit will foster the generation of new ideas, guidelines and best practices among educators, broadly benefit learners, and promote inclusion of those under-represented in the BME discipline. Interactions across institutions and with industry partners will further enhance learning that strengthens student competitiveness for emerging engineering disciplines.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
