Bioengineering at the University of California, Riverside

Bioengineering at UCR is an interdisciplinary effort that couples expertise in the biosciences and engineering in order to make biologically-based, health and medical-related technological advances for positive societal impact.

The mission of the new Department of Bioengineering at the University of California, Riverside focuses on two interrelated themes:

1. Advancing Bioengineering research, particularly in BioCellular Engineering, and,
2. Preparing future leadership in Bioengineering and related fields.

Our unique interdisciplinary program combines building a solid fundamental foundation in biological science and engineering, developing diverse communication skills and providing training in the most advanced quantitative bioengineering research. The result is a rigorous, but exceptionally interactive and welcoming educational training for Bioengineering students leading towards B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees.
