Credit: 3 to 4 hours.


(CH E 375) Study of the engineering principles that underlie many of the powerful tools in biotechnology, and addresses how scientific discoveries and engineering approaches are being used in current industrial applications. Topics addressed include: physical principles that govern self-organization and repair in biological systems; the tools that have been developed to characterize, manipulate, and quantify biomolecules; and the use of analytical tools and genetic manipulation in modern bioengineering and biotechnology applications. Same as BIOE 472. 3 undergraduate hours. 4 graduate hours. Prerequisite: CHEM 202, CHEM 203, CHEM 204 or equivalent; MATH 220; PHYS 211, PHYS 214 or equivalent; MCB 350.
