BIOENGINEERING
2020-2021 ANNUAL REPORT
The UC San Diego Department of Bioengineering has been inventing and re-inventing the field of bioengineering for more than 50 years, and it continues to take the field in new and exciting directions. Some of the most influential work that helped launch the field of bioengineering happened here at UC San Diego. Today, our campus remains an incredibly open and vibrant environment. This enables us to recruit some of the most talented young investigators, and continue exploring the next frontiers and embracing non-traditional research directions in the realm of bioengineering.

We celebrate the remarkable achievements of our dedicated mentors, exceptional students, and proud alum who have faced the challenges of the last year with incredible tenacity, resilience, and initiative. I look forward to seeing the growth of these current and future leaders of bioengineering, and the ways our community will continue to shape our world through education, research, and transformative technology.
