Biotechnology And Bioprocessing Laboratory For Chemical Engineering And Bioengineering

With the revolutions in cell and molecular biology of the last three decades and the impending transformations that genomics and proteomics will bring, there has been increasing interest in incorporating biology and particularly biotechnology into the engineering curriculum. Bioengineering has often been considered only biomedical engineering; however, as described by Beth Panitz in ASEE Prism 1, it can include a variety of disciplines including biotechnology and bioprocessing, agricultural engineering, and food engineering.
