Sydney University Association of Biomedical Engineers Designathon

Students are challenged with a real-world biomedical engineering problem provided by our esteemed industry sponsors: Cochlear, Enovis, and ResMed.

Over an intensive two-day innovation sprint, teams of students collaborate to design and develop practical, innovative solutions under tight time constraints.

Day 1: September 29, 10AM – 5PM

Day 2: September 30, 10AM – 9PM (6PM – 9PM is the final presentations)

Throughout the process, they apply engineering principles, critical thinking, and teamwork to address complex challenges reflective of those faced by professionals in the field.

At the end of the event, each team presents their solution to a panel of judges comprised of industry experts and faculty members from the Biomedical Engineering department.

These presentations are evaluated based on creativity, feasibility, technical rigor, and potential impact, providing students with invaluable feedback and exposure to real-world expectations in the biomedical industry.
