Research
DTU Bioengineering provides a fundamental and applied understanding of biological and molecular systems. A key focus is to provide the technological and biological means to discover new bioactive molecules, proteins/enzymes or biologics (microorganisms or microbiomes) for biomedical or biotechnological purposes.
Research Centres and Hub
Research Cores and Strain Collections
A number of highly specialized research cores support research and education at DTU Bioengineering and elsewhere.
Teaching
We contribute to a number of biotech oriented educations at DTU where students can realize their full potential and master technologies for the benefit of people and society.
Research and education are closely interconnected at DTU and students are guaranteed to be taught by dedicated researchers who are on top of the newest knowledge within their fields.
