Bioengineering human tissue: Design, fabrication, analysis
Bioengineering human tissue: Design, fabrication, analysis Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) focuses on the design, fabrication, and analysis of bioengineered human tissue, offering Master’s students a unique opportunity to explore this rapidly evolving field.
Students will be introduced to human tissue engineering through a combination of theoretical insight and hands-on training using a variety of state-of-the-art methods.
Bioengineered three-dimensional (3D) human tissues are powerful tools used in disease modelling, drug development, and toxicology assessment, and they also hold strong potential for the repair and regeneration of human tissues. In this course, you will gain a broad understanding of key concepts in human tissue engineering, including:
The in-person component of this BIP introduces essential techniques for generating, culturing, and analysing human 3D tissue models, giving you direct experience with the methods used in cutting-edge research.
Practical Information
Open to: Master's level students in Bioengineering, Biotechnology, Biology, Biomaterials, and Chemical Engineering
Online teaching component: June 15th to 19th, 2026
In-person component: August 31st to Sept 4th 2026 at TU Darmstadt
Number of Participants: about 2-8 per Unite! university, max 25 in total
End of application period: 15 April 2026
