Introduction to Bioengineering

Recent advances in Bioengineering have the potential to benefit human health and longevity. In this course we will review STEM fundamentals, and then survey novel tools in pharmacology, genetics, and optics. This course will teach students how to think like a scientist—we will have ethical debates, come up with experiments, and analyze (simple) data. Most importantly, this course will be interactive.

*The course will meet for two hours daily (Monday–Friday) for a live online class during this window of time. The third hour is used for online office hours. Students will be admitted to and attend just one course section and time. The exact course time and office hour schedule will be set closer to the start of the program. In addition to the live meeting times, students complete out-of-class learning assignments such as assigned readings, group work, pre-recorded online lectures, and more.
