Biotechnology & Bioengineering

The Doctoral Program in Biotechnology and Bioengineering (EDBB) provides doctoral students with the education necessary to be leaders in the fast-growing industrial and academic biotechnology and bioengineering sectors. Students gain a depth of knowledge and competence in their specific research area as well as a breadth of knowledge in biology, bioengineering and biotechnology.

The combination of coursework, laboratory based research, in-house seminars, and national and international conferences, etc. form the basis of this education.

The program’s themes include:

• genomics and proteomics
• biomolecular engineering and biomaterials
• stem cell biotechnology
• cell and process engineering
• biochemical engineering
• orthopaedic engineering
• biomechanics, mechanobiology
• cell biophysics
• computational biology
• biomedical imaging
• molecular, cell and tissue engineering.
