Dr. Jain’s objectives as a professor are to inspire students from diverse walks of life to come together and develop mastery and critical thinking in the subjects that he teaches. To enhance student experience, his teaching integrates current research, career focus, peer learning and modern communication methods. Within Texas A&M, Dr. Jain designed the first graduate class of “Bioengineered Cell Systems” that exposes students to contemporary New Approach Methods (NAMs), including organoids, microphysiological systems and in silico approaches in biomedical research. His course integrates into the growing cell and molecular engineering track of our curriculum.

Dr. Jain teaches “Communications in BME” This is a core graduate class that has been fully refurbished to include topics spanning effective storytelling techniques, writing and reviewing manuscripts, proposals, graphics art, and ethical use of AI in communication. Dr. Jain also teaches  “Biofluid Mechanics” to advanced undergraduate students.

Mentoring research-oriented students has been his core strength. His students have won several prestigious awards and fellowships, such as, NSF graduate fellowship, AHA predoctoral fellowship, IFER fellowship, Elaine Rainer Investigator Award, Zweifach award, as well as TAMU university-level distinguished graduate student award in research, undergraduate thesis award, engineering diversity award, BMEN national excellence fellowship, Brown scholarships and several professional society-sponsored student travel awards.
