Why Biofabrication?
Help shape the future
Biofabrication is a new technological field that focuses on manufacturing structures for biomedical applications. It is considered a modern growth sector. The top-level research and teaching, the highly motivated instructors in small classes, and the involvement of selected international partner universities and research institutions in the areas of biomaterial research and biofabrication all help enable a smooth transition to both leading academia and industry sectors. Be it further postgraduate studies, a demanding scientific career, or a leading position in a company, there is an increasing need for the skills addressed in the study programme.
