“My favorite class has been senior design—I have enjoyed applying the engineering theory I have learned over the past four years of classes to develop a tangible product, based on a real client's need. I spent the year working with a team of five other BME seniors to collaboratively design, prototype, manufacture, and test a mechanical surgical assistive device for research use at the Department of Neurological Surgery at UMass Chan Medical School.”
