Bioengineering - what & why

Think of it as science and engineering having a baby—one that makes artificial organs, edits genes, and designs bacteria to clean up oil spills. Bioengineering takes the magic of biology and supercharges it with technology to solve real-world problems.

Because it’s literally shaping the future of medicine, food, and the environment! From 3D-printing human tissue to engineering crops that survive climate change, bioengineering is working behind the scenes to keep us alive, healthy, and fed.

It’s not as flashy as AI or rocket ships. Plus, a lot of its breakthroughs happen in labs, far from the public eye. But just wait—when bioengineers start growing replacement organs like houseplants, everyone will be paying attention.
