BME 261 - Prototyping, Simulation and Design
Students develop biomedical systems through integrated design approaches involving mechanical, electrical, and software components. The course emphasizes problem-solving, simulation, and prototyping, with exposure to development cycles and revision control. Students apply engineering principles from multiple domains and use tools such as CAD and digital manufacturing tools to create functional prototypes. Integration of subsystems across multiple domains will be reinforced through overlapping elements with BME252, BME284, BME294, and BME294L.
