- Description
- Biofabrication is a new and emerging field that integrates and applies knowledge from the disciplines of biology and additive and digital manufacturing. In this 16-credit certificate, students encounter state-of-the-art topics and solve innovative problems, such as the ability to print living cells; bioprinting replacement human tissues and organs using bioidentical cells from the patient; creating personalized prosthetics and implants, as well as novel dosage forms and drug delivery devices. Students completing the certificate program have the opportunity to gain the advanced technical knowledge and the digital skills to allow them to thrive in this exciting new field.
