In their senior year, our undergraduate students take a two-semester capstone/senior design experience synthesizing the knowledge they gain from their program. Our seniors form teams and work together to develop solutions to real-world biomedical/clinical problems.
Our student teams work with clinical, industry, and faculty partners to develop creative solutions to these problems. Students learn invaluable skills of team work, communication, problem solving, project management, and product development as they journey through this capstone experience.
