Biological Engineering develops new solutions for scientific and technical problems in areas at the intersection of Biology with Engineering. The role of a biological engineer encompasses studying, designing and developing new biotechnology-based products and services with applications to the health and agri food sector and the environment, which are vital for the wellbeing of a modern, fair and sustainable society.
• Acquisition of knowledge and understanding of facts, concepts, processes and procedures inherent to Biological Engineering
• Integration and application of principles, calculation/analysis methodologies and procedures specific to Engineering Sciences and Biological Engineering
• Analysis of information and of concrete situations in order to create, adapt, reformulate and optimize projects within the scope of the functions mentioned in 3.1
• Development of verbal and non-verbal communication skills, autonomy, analytical and critical thinking, creativity, time management and teamwork
• Awareness to ethical, societal and environmental issues
The learning objectives are operationalized through Curricular Units with concrete learning
objectives/methodologies that were designed so that students acquire knowledge of different types (factual, conceptual, procedural and strategic), in different cognitive domains (memorization, understanding, application, evaluation, design).
