生物工程学是物理科学和生命科学的交汇处，它结合了物理学和化学原理来理解生命系统的运行。与其他工程领域一样，该方法是高度定量的：数学分析和建模用于捕获从亚细胞到生物规模的系统功能。通过生物医学工程学以及更广泛的工程学教育，学生可以将抽象的假设和科学知识转化为工作系统（例如，修复设备，成像系统和生物制药）。工程科学学士学位的BE轨道课程要求20个半课程。工程科学SB-生物工程轨道的学习计划表提供了易于掌握的浓缩要求摘要。宣布时，每个学生的批准的学习计划的副本将提交给学术计划办公室，并由学生及其集中顾问每年进行
Engineering Sciences provides an integrative approach to developing the engineering skills necessary to tackle real-world problems. Engineering has evolved over the years to not only dive deeply into specific fields, but also to seek out solutions to real-world problems by combining concepts from a broad range of scientific inquiries and innovations. The Engineering Sciences concentration is ideally positioned to provide students with both the breadth and depth of study needed to excel in these and other exciting integrative areas of engineering within the liberal arts setting of Harvard. Students choosing the Engineering Sciences Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts programs select a specialization in one of the primary areas described above through their concentration Track.
