In order to introduce students to mechanical engineering, a first year design laboratory was developed based on pine wood derbies that are run in various children’s organizations. In these races, children and their parents design and build a car using a kit consisting of a pine block, metal axles and plastic wheels. This design exercise introduces students to several aspects of mechanical engineering, including manufacturing, aerodynamics, and material science. It also builds on courses that cover engineering drawing and report writing.

Regenerative engineering is defined as the convergence of the disciplines of advanced material science, stem cell science, physics, developmental biology and clinical translation for the regeneration of complex tissues and organ systems. It is an expansion of tissue engineering, which was first developed as a method of repair and restoration of human tissue. In the past three decades, advances in regenerative engineering have made it possible to treat a variety of clinical challenges by utilizing cutting-edge technology currently available to harness the body’s healing and regenerative abilities. The emergence of new information in developmental biology, stem cell science, advanced material science and nanotechnology have provided promising concepts and approaches to regenerate complex tissues and structures.

Material science and engineering are the sources of divergent emerging technologies, since all the modifications and developments are being made to reach a novel biomaterial to fulfill the requirements of biomedical applications, the first important feature is the biocompatibility of the new advanced material. In this chapter, the general biocompatibility concept, test systems to determine biocompatibility, examples of bioinspired materials and their altered biocompatibility and future expectations from these novel bioinspired materials will be discussed.
