ChemEng 220: Chemical Engineering Principles of Biological SystemsEvery fall, I teach ChE 220, an introduction to cell and molecular biology and bioengineering course. This class is required for Chemical Engineering sophomores, and is a Biological Sciences GenEd. In 290B, we cover critical basic topics in Biology that all Chemical Engineers should know, such as:
Class assignments include homeworks (about 6 per semester), short quizzes to cover biology reading, 3 total exams, and a small research project at the end of the class. In the research project, students have a team, and learn how to find and scrutinize current bioengineering literature, and present a recent, exciting technology to the class. Classes are T/Th from 9:30-10:45a, room TBA for fall 2012. Course website can be found on Moodle. ChemEng 590B: Tissue EngineeringThis graduate and undergraduate co-listed class covers the newest technologies in engineering replacement tissues, discuss how cells interact with, create, and remodel the extracellular matrix in vivo, how the matrix can feedback and regulate cell behavior, and how engineers can use this information to direct cell behavior with materials systems both in vitro and in vivo. Lectures are 50% from myself, and 50% from students. Each student researches a single tissue engineering device, technology, or high-profile researcher. They post a summary of the topic as a webpage, using Openwetware and Wikis, as well as give a brief (15min) presentation to the class. This student-driven research in Tissue Engineering will eventually form the bases of a student-developed online resource for the global community.
