The DeFINE Program: A Clinical Immersion for Biomedical Needs Identification

Abstract: Breanne Przestrzelski is a University Innovation Fellow at Clemson University where she is pursuing her PhD in Bioengineering with a focus on innovation of biomedical devices and translation thereof through immersion of bioengineers in design and entrepreneurship opportunities. The University Innovation Fellowship, which is a program of Epicenter and a joint-venture of VentureWell and Stanford University, has inspired Breanne to share her passion for design and entrepreneurship through a variety of initiatives… Show more

“…13 Through these open-ended postprogram reflections, students identified this format as beneficial, reporting feeling better able to ask thoughtful questions and prepared for shadowing. This blocked format has been implemented in other existing programs as well, 10,14 but others have had students prefer interspacing immersion activities with didactic learning. 15 During the COVID-19 pandemic, the program delivery method was able to be moved to virtual lectures.…”

“…This extra emphasis placed on the rising senior group was conceived due to 2014 results showing that the rising senior group found the DeFINE Program to have the greatest usefulness for future senior design experiences as well as the greatest influence on their future goals (shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5). 3 This group was therefore sought out in greater number for the 2015 DeFINE Program. It should be noted that all of the undergraduates will undergo the full senior design course following the DeFINE Program except for the mid-year seniors, who will only undergo the second semester of the senior design course (the product development semester).…”

“…The purpose of this pilot study was to gain understanding of the perceived impact of our institution's Summer Innovation Internship on students' attitudes towards engineering design and entrepreneurship. Several studies have investigated students' attitudes towards entrepreneurship, or entrepreneurial mindset, through various curricular and co-curricular activities [1][2][3][4] . To build upon the growing body of literature that support the advantages of an entrepreneurial mindset, we are seeking to understand how engineering students' entrepreneurial attitudes affect their perceptions of the engineering design process and performance in the senior design course.…”
