George Ricco works in engineering education, studying how engineering and biomedical engineering curricula are designed, taught, and experienced by undergraduate students. Recent work explores active-learning techniques, design-based courses, student identity and belonging, and even using large language models (AI text-generation tools) to evaluate curriculum content. This research is aimed at improving how engineering topics like design, signals and systems, and health informatics are taught rather than at technical engineering problems themselves.
Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, peaking in 2020 and 2024 with a gap in 2023, suggesting an uneven but ongoing pace of activity rather than steady growth.
