BME 260, an elective design course, is offered to undergraduate and graduate Engineering students at Duke. Students are paired with health care professionals to build custom assistive, recreational, or therapeutic devices for people with disabilities.

During the spring semester, BME 260 is linked with a similar course at UNC, Rehabilitation Engineering Design (BMME 290), using a telecommunications classroom.

Please feel free to navigate this site and learn more about BME 260. On the site you will find links to past and current projects from both Duke and UNC. You will also find a link to the NSF site where you can search for past projects at all of the other schools building projects for people with disabilities.
