In this course we'll explore the fundamentals of manufacturing with biology: using case studies and practical examples of how Biochemical Engineers are helping to develop new cancer treatment and the application of stem cells in cell therapy.

There will the opportunity to visit the UCL Pilot Plant to see first hand how process engineering and R&D in this area can impact how pharmaceuticals will be made in future.

This course is particularly suitable for students who are would like a course where they can combine maths with sciences, or who are interested in a career in the growing sector of biotechnology.
