Case BME has been a leader in innovative experimental learning. Giving students the opportunity to get into labs or work with actual medical devices is a core part of our program. Case BME offers a multitude of opportunities for our students to gain hands-on experience, especially in industrial and/or clinical settings. In 2001, Case implemented a BME Student Employment Program where students can participate in co-op, internship, or part-time opportunities in actual research and/or industrial settings. The mission of this program is to give Case BME students a competitive advantage by increasing their experiential learning and fulltime placement opportunities while fostering a perception among potential students that the program offers an exclusive opportunity to obtain BME employment. In addition to co-op and internship placement assistance, students also receive full-time placement assistance and career counseling, which is specifically geared toward biomedical engineering. Another area for students to gain hands-on experience is in one of our more than 41 state-of-the art teaching laboratory exercises. All BS graduates complete two semesters of Biomedical Engineering Laboratory (EBME 313 and EBME 314) during their junior year. BS graduates also complete a BME Design Project (EBME 380) or BME Laboratory Research Project (EBME 398) during their senior year as part of their "Senior Capstone" experience.
