Abstract :
Engineers from all disciplines can benefit from cross-disciplinary expertise. We see biomedical engineers working on complex mechatronic systems along-side mechanical and electrical engineers. Find out how educators can captivate engineering students through hands-on instructional labs while preparing them to solve industry-relevant problems. Learn how Quanser is helping educators share resources to create a truly collaborative learning environment.
