Learner goals and capabilities

Do you have a healthcare-related problem that you wish you could get at if you had just a little more time?

Teams of 3-5 students from Arizona State University will work to address an engineering design problem that your organization is facing. The team will participate in the capstone design with guidance from a faculty member with expertise in biomedical engineering and medical device design. By the end of the course, the team can present market analyses, bench test and modeling results, and prototypes to demonstrate a feasible solution to your problem.

All work with companies will be done remotely.
