The bioengineering program prepares applied engineering talent for work in biology, pharmaceuticals, food and environmental fields. Its research directions include intelligent nano drug delivery systems, functional nucleic acid applications in diagnostics, and the development, targeting and synthesis of biopharmaceuticals. Students develop strong scientific and engineering foundations along with innovation and teamwork skills. The program also emphasizes product research and development and production process design.
Core courses include biochemistry, microbiology, cell biology, genetic engineering, molecular biology, bioreaction engineering, fermentation technology, enzyme engineering, biochemical separation, pharmaceutics, pharmacology and instrumental analysis. Graduates engage in product research, process design, production management and product testing across biological and pharmaceutical companies, food and energy industries, and environmental organizations. Some proceed to teaching and research at universities and research institutes.
