BME Undergrad Summer Upskilling Activities

Hi! I am a second year BME undergrad student. Summer break is ongoing and I really wanted to figure out what I can do/learn for myself.

Right now, I am doing certifications in ML and biosensor fabrication, and I'm planning to do one in AI for biomedical applications as well. My current interests mainly lie in neuroscience, neurotech, and rehabilitation robotics.

I’ve been struggling to find internships, cold emailing hasn’t worked very well, and I’m not really sure where I should be applying. Are there any freelancing or project-based opportunities I could pursue with my current skills?

I’ve also designed some concepts/sketches with proper scaling, and I’m wondering whether learning CAD software or Blender would be more useful for my field.

Any sort of inputs and advice would be appreciated to help out this confused (and slightly frustrated) student 😭
