Mission and Vision
Bioengineering is an engineering discipline that combines the principles of science and engineering sciences to understand and solve problems encountered in fields related to living life such as medicine, veterinary, food and environmental sciences. In addition to many basic and applied branches of engineering such as mass and heat transfer, kinetics, biocatalysis, biomechanics, separation and purification techniques, bioreactor design, surface science, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and polymer chemistry; genetics, molecular biology, protein chemistry, metabolism, cell physiology and biochemistry, cytology, bioelectricity, neurobiology, immunology, pharmacology, etc. and aims to produce original solutions to the problems of today's society in different dimensions and sectors.
