BME launches first International Summer Design Camp

Posted: 


Professor Mark Ruegsegger and the Department of Biomedical Engineering hosted the 1st International Summer Design Camp in August 2014. The two-week camp integrated 9 undergraduate students from Nanjing University with two BME seniors from OSU, with the focus of learning the engineering design process to create medical devices.  Teams worked on machining and computer drawing skills; idea generation and design selection; and teamwork activities.  The event successfully incorporated a global perspective to engineering design, and is planned to be hosted alternately at the two institutions in the future.
