4 unit(s)
Working in groups, students approach an open-ended design problem, applying design thinking, problem solving skills, systems analysis, simulation and optimization; topics in economic decision-making are introduced; oral and written communication is emphasized in the context of biomedical engineering activities.
Two lectures, one tutorial (two hours); second term
Prerequisite(s): IBEHS 2P03, IBEHS 3A03 and registration in the Integrated Biomedical Engineering and Health Sciences (IBEHS) program

10 unit(s)
Project-based integrated learning course that introduces a range of foundational (i.e., cornerstone) topics in engineering, including engineering design and communication, computation, graphic design, materials and the engineering profession. Topics are applied through a series of integrated team-based design projects in simulated healthcare environments.
