Undergraduate Bioengineering Design Projects

该奖项将资助本科生设计项目，为患有肌肉骨骼或神经疾病的人开发定制设备。学生们将与为目标人群提供护理和培训的机构合作。该小组每年将进行十个项目，完成项目的报告将包括在一份出版物中，该出版物将详细介绍参与该项目的所有机构完成的项目。这种类型的经验很重要，因为它不仅为工程专业的学生提供了有意义的项目，作为他们教育的一部分，而且还将使那些通常需要定制许多康复设备的人群受益。

This award will fund Undergraduate Design Projects to develop custom devices for persons with musculoskeletal or neurological disorders. The students will work with an institution providing care and training for the targeted population. Ten projects per year will be undertaken by the group and reports on the completed projects will be included in a publication that will detail the projects completed at all institutions participating in this project. This type of experience is important since not only will it provide meaningful projects for the engineering students to complete as part of their education, but it will also benefit a population where customization is usually required of many rehabilitation devices.
