By modeling the course project interdisciplinary team structure with an interdisciplinary teaching team, the aim is to promote interdisciplinary learning, foster teamwork among the student teams, and improve student engagement. Other course objectives are to develop students’ creative problem solving skills, empathetic design practices, interdisciplinary communication skills, prototyping skills, and ethical reasoning. Students are expected to become proficient at the empathetic design process as well as interdisciplinary communication. Creative problem solving, ethical reasoning, and realization of a product through prototyping are expected to be emergent skills that will need further refinement after the course.The paper is organized as follows: the background section reviews relevant literature on interdisciplinary experiences between engineering, nursing, and biology. The course structure section gives an overview of how the course is composed, while the implementation section describes in detail how the course is taught. A section on student outcomes discusses student learning gains as a result of taking the course. The paper closes with sections on lessons learned from teaching the course, and conclusions and future work.
