The best aspects of this course were the variety of speakers, seeing what people are doing after Hopkins, and the relaxed nature of the course. This is an easy and enjoyable one credit course. Despite this, some of the speakers did not have careers related to BME, which seemed counterproductive to the point of the class. More speakers from the BME industry and a presentation from a hiring manager were suggested as improvements to the course. Prospective students should know this is a great course for networking, and to get a look at your options post-Hopkins.

Students enjoyed the opportunity to learn from the weekly guest lecturers who shared their experiences and explained their career paths. Students felt that some careers discussed were not related to BME and that there was little student interaction during lectures. Suggestions for improvement included having improved opportunities for students to network with professionals, increasing the diversity of fields discussed, and having a clear structure for grading expectations. Prospective students will have the opportunity to learn about possible careers in BME, and wil be expected to attend al lectures.
