About the course

Solve bio-related challenges facing our society by producing chemical building blocks, therapeutical drugs (biopharmaceuticals), tissue-engineered organs, biocompatible materials, food and beverage products and bioenergy.

　　You'll learn from the new discoveries used in biology and medicine. Discover how the rapid developments in the field of synthetic biology and its associated methods, including more widely available gene editing techniques, have substantially increased our capabilities for bioengineering.

　　As our ability to modify and control biological systems increases, biological processes are replacing chemical and mechanical processes due to their inherent advantages of renewable resources, mild operation conditions and minimal waste problems. Bioengineering creates the opportunity to solve health and environmental problems. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
