Career Ready Skills
The senior design projects introduce seniors to real-world applications in the medical device field. Students work with Project Advisors and sponsors from industry, like Medtronic and Bone & Joint Institute of Hartford, to create functional prototypes. Students follow industry-standard design controls and learn how to document their project using FDA regulatory workflows. They undergo verification and validation test methods to prove efficacy of their designs.
As part of the senior design course, students develop career-ready skills that make them exceptional candidates for a competitive job market. WNE biomedical engineers graduate from the program with exceptional technical, presentation, and communication skills.
