The master program Smart Biomaterials and Applications is organized and coordinated by the Faculty of Medical Engineering from the University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest (UPB).

The main purpose of the program is to provide competitive education using state-of-the-art laboratories and highly skilled trainers for the tomorrow’s specialists and leaders in the field of Biomaterials and Applications. This program aims the development of real employability skills according to the current requirements of employers in modern fabrication technologies, implants, tissue engineering and medical engineering.

The specific objectives of the program are:

• Assimilation of solid technical knowledge, verbal and written communication, decision making, lateral thinking, analytical thinking, investigating, in the field of modern and smart biomaterials (advanced materials – biomimetic, smart; artificial organs; bio functionalization; surface engineering; control of properties; (bio)fabrication technologies – 3D (bio)printing, electrospinning; advanced characterization methods – micro-CT, biodynamic testing, biosensors, algorithms, concepts, modeling, simulation, optimization, etc.).
• Knowledge and use of modern hardware tools (fabrication technologies: 3D (bio)printing, electrospinning, extrusion, plasma treatment; advanced characterization / testing including: contact angle and superficial tension, circular dichroism, micro-CT, electron microscopy, FTIR, Raman, UV-Vis spectroscopy) and corresponding software packages (for programming, modeling, design, image analysis) from the field of smart biomaterials and applications.

We have a strong partnership with the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Carol Davila, Bucharest and we promote partnership with different universities and research groups in Europe. We encourage the master students to develop master theses with research, industrial or clinical partners. The master students will be part of a research team to fully experience what means to be a researcher. All the courses of the program are open for Erasmus incoming students.
