The primary objective of this course is to teach the chemistry and engineering skills needed to solve challenges in the biomaterials and tissue engineering area. This includes macromolecular chemistry & material science, physical characterization & properties, materials & biology, and focused biomaterial sections. The course will concentrate on fundamental principles in biomedical engineering, material science, and chemistry. This course uses a combination of lectures, guest lectures, student presentations, and self-directed learning to examine the structure and properties of hard materials (ceramics, metals) and soft materials (polymers, hydrogels).
