Staff. Pre-requisite: ENGP 2010. The objective of this course is to introduce the student to bioelectricity of excitable cells from a quantitative perspective. Topics include membrane transport phenomena, the ionic basis of action potentials, the Hodgkin - Huxley model, propagation of action potentials down excitable fibers, the response of cells to external stimuli, and the current flow in the medium surrounding the electrically-active cell. The course also incorporates virtual bioelectricity labs designed to familiarize the student with the concepts presented in lecture.

3.00 Credits
Dr. Gaver. Pre-requisite: MATH 2240. The objective of this course is to teach basic mathematical modeling constructs and analysis techniques that are used for studying biological processes. Topics to be covered include ordinary differential equations, compartment systems, basics of dynamic systems, stability, statistical inference and model construction. These will be applied to study models of chemical kinetics, physiological control, AIDS transmission, population dynamics, and growth. Students will use Mathematica to develop and analyze models.

Dr. Rice. Pre-requisite: Senior standing. Techniques and experience in the solution of constrained and open-ended design problems. Lecture topics include all aspects of the design process, including goal setting, idea generation, prototyping, fabrication, and product and evaluation. Also included are technical presentation, project planning and management. Included as needed are other topics such as standards, fastening and joining, motors and control, esthetics and finish. Each team will design and construct a device or system to assist an individual with a disability. These designs are presented in a public show during the second semester.

Dr. Rice. Pre-requisite: Approval of instructor. Co-requisite: BMEN 403 or 404. The required BMEN 403/404 design sequence is centered on the design and construction of a device or system to assist an individual with a disability or a group servicing such individuals. As an option, students may choose to supplement their interaction with their clients with a service learning component that follows Tulane’s guidelines for service learning courses and specifically requires: Completing at least 40 hours in a community setting during the semester; keeping a journal of weekly activities that will allow the student to describe and evaluate his/her experiences with the activity; and creating a product that can be evaluated as part of the course grade (e.g., a review paper on an issue relevant to the service activity, or some product of value to the site).

2.00 Credits
Staff. This course introduces the tools, techniques, and rules necessary to function professionally as a researcher or engineer. Topics include economic analysis, ethics, professional communication including writing and oral presentation, research techniques including literature searching, citation, and the structure of a scientific paper. An integral part of the course is a year-long research or design project under the direction of a faculty member or other scientist or professional. This culminates in a Senior Thesis and a presentation in Departmental Seminar.
