This course focuses on the engineering of tissues using functional biomaterials, scaffolds and/or advanced techniques such as 3D printing. In this course, you will learn about how materials have biomimetic effects on cells, tissue and organ systems, and how these may be engineered to replace loss of function due to tissue removal, disease or damage. You will learn how synthetic tissue constructs are designed, engineered, constructed, implanted and monitored to establish their ongoing functionality and ability to remediate tissue dysfunction.

If you are enrolled in this course as a component of your Bachelor Honours Program, your overall mark will contribute to the calculation of the weighted average mark (WAM).

See the WAM information web page for more information.
