DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose to develop an interdisciplinary design program that will train undergraduate students at the senior level through all the steps of the translational product design process from needs-finding to commercialization. This will be a campus-wide, integrative, interdisciplinary experience involving participants from the College of Engineering, Graduate School of Management, School of Medicine, School of Veterinary Medicine, Technology Transfer Office, and Design department. We will create new courses that complement existing engineering design courses and which reflect the flow of work from the clinic, to the engineering prototype, to commercialization. At the end of this sequence, students will be poised to market their work for licensing or start their own business. The new courses consist of one quarter of clinical rotations to identify unmet needs and define a problem, two quarters of instruction and mentoring through the business aspects of biomedical design, and a one-quarter collaborative experience with Design majors to develop a marketing campaign. All students in the Biomedical Engineering major (current = 55) and other interested majors are eligible to participate in these courses. For the past three years we have mentored Biomedical Engineering (BME)-Mechanical Engineering (MAE) joint senior design teams, and anticipate the greatest outside interest from this major, but our goal over the 5 yr project is to recruit additional engineering departments to participate as relevant to project needs. In addition, a novel summer clinical rotation/film internship will be offered, open to 8 undergraduates entering their senior year. The students, working in teams, will spend 6 weeks in a clinical immersion, biomedical device, needs-finding experience for which they must produce a video that captures the key observations/conversations that lead to identification of unmet needs. The resulting videos will be used to supply the clinical rotation/needs-finding experience for a future frosh-level design course. )

描述(由申请者提供)：我们建议开发一个跨学科的设计项目，通过从需求发现到商业化的翻译产品设计过程的所有步骤，培养高水平的本科生。这将是一次全校范围的综合跨学科体验，参与者来自工程学院、管理研究生院、医学院、兽医学院、技术转移办公室和设计系。我们将创建新的课程，以补充现有的工程设计课程，并反映从临床到工程原型再到商业化的工作流程。在这个序列的最后，学生们将准备好将他们的作品推向市场，获得许可或开始自己的生意。新课程包括四分之一的临床轮换以确定未满足的需求和确定问题，两个季度通过生物医学设计的商业方面进行指导和指导，以及四分之一与设计专业的学生合作开发营销活动。所有生物医学工程专业的学生(目前为55人)和其他感兴趣的专业的学生都有资格参加这些课程。在过去的三年里，我们指导了生物医学工程(BME)-机械工程(MAE)联合高级设计团队，并期待这个专业最大的外部兴趣，但我们在5年项目中的目标是招募更多的工程部门参与与项目需求相关的工作。此外，还将提供一种新颖的暑期临床轮换/电影实习机会，向8名进入大四的本科生开放。学生们以小组形式工作，将在临床浸入式生物医学设备中花费6周时间寻找需求，为此他们必须制作一段视频，捕捉导致识别未满足需求的关键观察/对话。生成的视频将用于为未来的初级设计课程提供临床轮换/需求查找体验。)
