Education Overview
The Department of Developmental BioEngineering (DBE) is a multifaceted research group that focuses on both fundamental and applied research in the field of bioengineering. Our mission is to translate principles of developmental biology into innovative, technology-based therapeutic strategies.
In addition to our research activities, DBE plays a significant role in education, particularly within the Biomedical Engineering program. The department is actively involved in teaching various courses, contributing to the academic development of students in this field.
DBE's educational involvement serves multiple purposes:
- Knowledge transfer: It allows researchers to share their expertise and latest findings with students.
- Practical experience: Students gain exposure to cutting-edge research and technologies in bioengineering.
- Research opportunities: The department offers customizable research assignments for both bachelor's and master's students, allowing them to contribute to high-end research projects.
This integration of research and education creates a dynamic learning environment where students can benefit from the expertise of leading professors while also having the opportunity to engage in hands-on research experiences. This approach helps bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in the field of biomedical engineering.
The courses that we are actively involved are:

The Department of Developmental BioEngineering offers a range of customizable research opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students. These opportunities are designed to align with students' individual interests while fulfilling academic requirements.
Students interested in pursuing a personalized research project are encouraged to reach out to the department directly. This allows for a collaborative discussion to identify a suitable assignment that not only caters to the student's specific areas of interest but also satisfies the necessary curricular criteria.
By offering these tailored research experiences, the department aims to provide students with hands-on learning opportunities that are both academically relevant and personally engaging. This approach allows students to delve deeper into areas of bioengineering that they find most compelling, potentially leading to more meaningful and impactful research outcomes.
