Biological Engineering
Biological Engineers combine their knowledge of life sciences with engineering principles to design and control biological processes and systems to improve the quality of life!
As a Biological Engineer, you will frequently work in multidisciplinary teams to solve problems related to biological systems. Engineering challenges include: preservation of quality and functionality of biological components, integration of computer-based technologies for monitoring and control, and design and scale-up from lab bench to commercial processes. Biological engineers also apply their knowledge of materials, physiology and mechanics to develop medical implants and assistive devices.
As a Biological Engineer you could:
