We pursue integrative research and offer graduate training at the frontiers of chemical engineering in these main areas: nanoscale science and engineering, computational science and engineering, biochemical and biomedical engineering. We added “biological” to our name in 2004 to better describe our commitment to this branch of engineering. We expect that a quantitative, mathematical, chemical-engineering approach will prove most effective for the modeling and manipulation of complex biological systems from individual cells, to tissues, to organs.
