Molecular Bioengineering

About this course

Molecular bioengineering is a discipline at the frontier of biology and engineering, applying the principles and methods of engineering to biological systems at the molecular level. It asks how the tools of physics, chemistry, and engineering can be used to understand, model, and ultimately design biological molecules and processes, and how this understanding can be translated into technologies that benefit medicine, materials science, and industry. The field encompasses biosensors, drug delivery systems, synthetic biology, tissue engineering, and the development of biomolecular devices. At Imperial College London, this four-year full-time programme develops the scientific understanding and laboratory expertise of a life scientist alongside the technical knowledge and problem-solving skills of an engineer. You will study the molecular machinery of cells, the physical and chemical princi
