This proposal is to develop a new senior year capstone design course and summer immersion program for Bioengineering students at George Mason University. Recognizing the importance of introducing the biomedical design process early and building on this throughout the undergraduate program, our Bioengineering Department has introduced a new curriculum where design is taught in each of the four years. The curriculum begins with an introductory Computer-aided design based experience in the freshmen year, followed by a biomaterials design project in the sophomore year and a course with a product development component in parallel with a course in clinical medicine (taught by physicians) in the junior year. The new proposed capstone design course builds upon this foundation beginning with a summer clinical immersion program that leads into an analysis phase of identified clinical needs in the capstone design course. To further support our design teams in addressing patient-oriented clinical needs and emerging opportunities involving health informatics and health policy, we will include a senior student from nursing, health informatics or health policy into each design team, based on a skill set analysis of each project. The design teams are supported by advising teams composed of faculty from Bioengineering, Nursing, Health Informatics and Health Policy and by industry advisors selected from our new industry advisory board, the Mason Bioengineering Alliance. Design teams will have access to university and medical center resources and follow an industry standard product design and development process. Our approach includes a practical early stage assessment of clinical importance and market potential including the important aspects of intellectual property, regulatory considerations, ethics and reimbursement. This proposal aims to 1) establish a multidisciplinary summer clinical immersion program leading into the Bioengineering capstone course at 3 clinical centers : Inova Fairfax Medical Campus, Children’s National Medical Center and Georgetown University Medical Center 2) integrate Nursing, Health Informatics, and Health Administration students and faculty into Bioengineering Design teams (students) and advisory groups (faculty) and 3) apply in a real world clinical context our new curriculum’s foundation of multiyear design and courses in i) Clinical Medicine and ii) Intellectual Property, Regulatory Concepts, Product Development, responding to newly identified clinical needs. A design control approach with inclusion of relevant standards and risk analyses are included. Workshops will teach ethics, reimbursement and oral communications. Using this integrated, translational approach to learn design will better prepare our students to be biomedical technology innovators. Incorporating a clinical needs finding approach and working with health professional students involved in patient care and health administration will give our students a unique real world experience in patient-oriented bioengineering design. With this senior design course under their belt, our students will be prepared for industry positions, for starting their own companies, or for further graduate education. 1

这项建议是开发一个新的高年级顶点设计课程和夏季沉浸计划， 乔治梅森大学生物工程专业的学生。认识到引进生物医学的重要性， 设计过程早期，并在此基础上整个本科课程，我们的生物工程 该系推出了一门新的课程，在四年的每一年都教授设计。课程 开始与介绍计算机辅助设计为基础的经验，在大一，其次是 生物材料设计项目在大二和产品开发组件的过程中， 与大三的临床医学课程（由医生教授）平行。新提议的顶点 设计课程建立在这个基础上，从夏季临床浸入式课程开始， 在顶点设计课程中确定临床需求的分析阶段。进一步支持我们的设计团队 在解决以患者为导向的临床需求和涉及健康信息学和健康的新兴机会方面， 政策，我们将包括一名来自护理，健康信息学或健康政策的高年级学生进入每个设计团队， 基于每个项目的技能集分析。设计团队得到咨询团队的支持，咨询团队由以下人员组成： 来自生物工程，护理，健康信息学和健康政策的教师，并由行业顾问选择 来自我们新的行业顾问委员会梅森生物工程联盟。设计团队将可以访问 大学和医疗中心的资源，并遵循行业标准的产品设计和开发 过程我们的方法包括临床重要性和市场潜力的实际早期评估 包括知识产权、监管考虑、道德和报销等重要方面。 该提案旨在1）建立一个多学科的夏季临床沉浸计划， 生物工程顶点课程在3个临床中心：Inova费尔法克斯医学校园，儿童国家 医学中心和乔治敦大学医学中心2）整合护理，健康信息学和健康 管理学生和教师进入生物工程设计团队（学生）和咨询小组（教师） 3）在真实的临床环境中应用我们新课程的多年设计和课程基础， i）临床医学和ii）知识产权，监管概念，产品开发，应对新的 确定临床需求。设计控制方法包括相关标准和风险分析， 包括.讲习班将教授道德、偿还和口头交流。使用这种集成， 翻译的方法来学习设计将更好地准备我们的学生成为生物医学技术的创新者。 制定临床需求发现方法，并与参与患者治疗的健康专业学生合作 护理和健康管理将给我们的学生一个独特的真实的世界的经验，以病人为导向 生物工程设计有了这个高级设计课程，我们的学生将为工业做好准备 职位，创办自己的公司，或继续研究生教育。 1
