ENGT 1100 Engineering Biology (3-0-3)

This course covers biological areas that are specific to materials and engineering within current technological practices. These include anatomy, physiology, and microbiological concepts that specifically interact with drug delivery, implants, and other biomedical materials and devices. The course covers documented physiological and immunological responses of organisms to engineering materials and how these responses can be overcome to achieve desired engineered effects without causing physiological harm. The concept of biomimetics for current and new engineering technology is also covered.
