The Rice University Department of Bioengineering is a top-tier teaching and research institution with a faculty committed to excellence in education, interdisciplinary, basic and translational research. Both our graduate and undergraduate programs are consistently ranked among the nation’s top 10 bioengineering programs.
Key to our success as an international leader in bioengineering is capitalizing on Rice’s central location, which promotes the development of long-term strategic partnerships with industry, academic, and government institutions. Rice is situated in the midst of one of the largest, most diverse cities in the nation. Our neighbors include the Texas Medical Center (TMC) and its 46 member institutions. The TMC, which is the largest medical center in the world where much of Houston's biotechnology industry is focused, provides unlimited opportunity to expand our global reach and build unparallel teaching and research programs that solve pressing global health care problems.
Faculty members at the Rice University Department of Bioengineering have diverse research interests focused on establishing engineering principles and developing cutting-edge technologies to solve a host of life-science problems. Specific research interests include:
