Mestrado em Engenharia Química (M.S.Ch.E)

The Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering offers a course of study designed for students who plan careers in a wide variety of industries, ranging from the chemical and process industries to biotechnology, electronics, and the environment. Our faculty are currently pursuing relevant, cutting edge research in the following areas:

Developing new regenerative medical materials and therapies using bio- and nanotechnologies to speed the repair and regrowth of bone, blood vessels and soft tissues in vivo.

Developing cutting edge genomic techniques like ultra-fast polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to search for emerging disease threats such as antibiotic-resistant tuberculosis.

Using proteomic instruments like a specialized mass spectrometer designed to search for new genetically engineered protein medicines.

Developing a new pliable bandage that can stop fatal bleeding from trauma in civilian and military applications.

Partnering with international healthcare systems to develop abundant supplies of hemophilia medicines from the milk of genetically engineered livestock to treat 80% of the world's hemophilia patients.

Discovering a device to give robots a human sense of touch using nanotechnology.

Developing a process for sustainable biofuels production.

As the only engineering college in Nebraska, we take our role very seriously. We provide our students with professors with national and international expertise in their fields, the latest technology, quality facilities, a vast network of successful alumni and friends of the college, and caring staff. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering is also unique in its variety of locations: three campuses in Nebraska's two largest cities.

The College of Engineering enthusiastically embraces its unique role as the singular intellectual and cultural resource for engineering instruction, research, and outreach within the state. It provides the people of Nebraska with comprehensive engineering academic programs to fulfill their highest aspirations and ambitions.
