Course Description
The BMM 498 course provides students with a design experience within the scope of biomedical engineering by utilizing the knowledge and skills acquired during their undergraduate education. The capstone design project course begins with the selection of an appropriate project and includes all stages until its completion. Students aim to solve a problem for a biomedical engineering application by creating a logical system design and completing the project in this manner. The project work is preferably carried out by teams of two to four students. At least one faculty member is assigned as an advisor for each project. If there is a partnering company, a co-advisor may be required.

Course Objectives
The objectives of the BMM498 course are to ensure that students gain knowledge about specific biomedical engineering applications, adopt and develop their academic and professional skills through these projects, formulate problems and applications within the framework of engineering disciplines to achieve a design, and learn to complete their projects by optimizing motivation, time management, and team dynamics.
Course Outcomes
1. Ensuring that students can integrate the theoretical knowledge they learn during their undergraduate education into real life
2. They gain the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes to successfully plan and execute design projects, such as academic writing language, literature research, referencing, data presentation, teamwork, and effective presentation techniques.
