Aisha Molnar

Background

Aisha Molnar is on the faculty of the Department of Biomedical Engineering and holds a doctoral clinical degree from Michigan State University and is licensed to practice. Before Porter, Aisha worked in R&D for a diagnostic-imaging manufacturer.

Aisha brings that practice into the classroom, teaching from real cases and current standards in human factors in health care and biomedical instrumentation.

Areas of expertise

• Human factors in health care
• Biomedical instrumentation
• Applied practice and industry partnerships

Teaching

Aisha regularly teaches courses in Biomedical Engineering. Specific sections and syllabi are listed in the class schedule each term.

Class time is built around cases and real deliverables. Students work to professional standards, present to a critique or a client-style panel, and revise. Aisha keeps the connection to current practice explicit.

Advising and office hours

Aisha advises students in the Biomedical Engineering programs and holds weekly office hours during the fall and spring terms, posted on the office door and in the course pages. Prospective students are welcome to email to arrange a visit or a call.

Advising conversations usually cover course sequencing, whether to add a minor or a concentration, and how classroom work connects to internships, research, or graduate study. Students who are undecided are welcome; part of the job is helping them narrow things down.

Recent and representative work

Aisha stays active in practice alongside teaching, through consulting, standards work, and applied projects in human factors in health care and biomedical instrumentation. Representative items:

• An applied project in human factors in health care with an industry or community partner.
• A workshop or short course on biomedical instrumentation for practitioners in the region.
• Service on a standards, licensing, or advisory body related to human factors in health care.

Titles and venues here are illustrative. UW–Porter Falls is fictional; Aisha has no real publication record.

Get in touch

The fastest way to reach Aisha is email (amolnar@uwporterfalls.edu); messages during the fall and spring terms are usually answered within two business days. Prospective students and families can ask the Biomedical Engineering department office to set up a call, a class visit, or a meeting during an admitted-student day.
