A recent study by the U.S. Department of Labor concluded that highest need for engineers in the next decade will be in the biomedical sector, with 33% more jobs projected by the year 2008. Clearly, programs are needed to increase the number of qualified and diverse engineers trained in biological sciences and/or medicine for the year 2008. For this purpose, the objective of the present study was to increase exposure and interest in biomedical engineering for students (particularly, females and underrepresented minorities) who would not normally have such opportunities.
