A student project for AHSE1500: Foundations of Business and Entrepreneurship (taught in Spring 2006) featuring an Olin College themed tradable card game. It consists of cards of students, professors, locations, and events.
This record contains the Final Report for the project and scanned images of all the cards in the game.
The Boston Scientific Polymer SCOPE team has worked to characterize two novel polymers and evaluate their potential use in medical devices. Polymers currently play a key role in biomedical devices and have many applications including use in surgical tools, as coatings on implantable devices, and even as components of drug-eluting devices. This year’s SCOPE team researched and identified applications for these novel polymers, developed a testing plan and associated protocols to characterize relevant properties of the novel polymers, and then used these results to inform recommendations on the use of the materials in medical device production. The team developed and executed six major experiments related to properties particularly significant for biomedical devices. Through the execution of these experiments, the team produced finalized versions of validated protocols that could be used in the future or further expanded for more comprehensive experiments.
The Rockwell Automation SCOPE team worked to provide an out-of-box quality control sensor for automation applications. Quality control sensors need to provide fast inspection capabilities for factories to ensure continuous quality of products. The team also looked into business opportunities for the sensor in line with Rockwell Automation’s industrial customer base. The team optimized the current sensor and made improvements. They also explored market segments where the sensor could make a significant impact on a factory’s quality control and automation processes.
