Capstone design projects are the culmination of the student learning process at the undergraduate level and provide an opportunity for students to work on real-world, open-ended problems. Following the engineering design process, students discover needs, propose solutions, build prototypes and test the implemented design. There are many models that exist in the exact implementation of this student experience, which satisfies many of the outcomes required by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), ranging from need-based design to basic research. 1 A common model for biomedical engineering (BME) students is to interact with clinicians such as nurses, doctors and residents, through interviews and in some cases, immersion experiences. 2 In other cases, faculty may communicate with the clinicians or industrial sponsors and provide the students with a set of problems. 3
