Harvard's School of Engineering offers a multidisciplinary bioengineering program that bridges various academic departments and research facilities across Harvard's campuses and affiliated hospitals. The field merges core engineering principles like thermodynamics and fluid dynamics with biological and physical sciences, enhanced by mathematical and computational approaches. This interdisciplinary approach enables us to decode biological systems and develop innovative solutions for pressing medical and biological challenges. Harvard's bioengineers lead pioneering work in areas including biologically inspired robotics, computational modeling, biomechanics, cellular engineering, biomaterials, and therapeutic development. Through collaboration with renowned institutions and access to exceptional resources, we drive groundbreaking discoveries. Our academic community partners with leading Boston-area research centers such as the Wyss Institute, Broad Institute, Nanoscale Science Center, Brain Science Center, Stem Cell Institute, Quantitative Biology Initiative, Martinos Center, Harvard Medical School, and Chan School of Public Health. The program provides both graduate and undergraduate degree options while offering students access to state-of-the-art research experiences.
