Biomeasurements


The advanced special studies in biomeasurements offer interdisciplinary viewpoint into biotechnology by combining it with new measurement technology and microsystems. The study programme concentrates on biosensing with micro and biosensors. Essential issues are the microfluidics, management of sample/sensor-interface, modelling and design of sensors and microsystems, understanding biosignals and their properties, electrical measurement methods, and applications of biochemical measurements.

Students will attain eligibility for working assignments in the field of design and development of measurements systems and biosensor products. The studies help to create the basic knowledge how to design biomeasurement systems and evaluate critically their performance.
