Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course "Materials for tissue engineering" (VMT) is to introduce bachelor students with the basic concept of tissue engineering; a multidisciplinary field based on the knowledge of materials science and biology. Biocompatible materials made from different polymers as well as various technologies used for scaffold fabrication will be presented followed by material characterization. The theoretical part will be in line with practical courses where different scaffolds will be prepared and characterize by students.
Student acquire knowledges of subject.
