Department of Bio and Brain Engineering

Program Description

Newly established in 2002 at the KAIST, the Department of Bio and Brain Engineering aims at providing educational programs that train experts who can generate new knowledge and conduct interdisciplinary research in unexplored areas wherein biology, medical science, and engineering are combined. The program focuses on an understanding of the characteristics and interactions of biomolecules such as DNA and proteins, a comprehensive analysis of bioinformation and biological phenomena on a systemic level, and the development of artificial biological elements with better biocompatibility and nano-scale operations.

The undergraduate curriculum focuses on providing comprehensive basic knowledge in areas including computer engineering, electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, biology, and medicine. In addition, through independent research on a variety of topics, students acquire skills for conducting interdisciplinary research. For a more effective and speedy completion of their studies, students are recommended to choose the program in which the bachelor's and master's degree are linked.
