The Institute of Biopharmaceutical and Health Engineering (iBHE) aims to explore the frontiers of health technology and engineering for human wellness to meet the practical needs and long-term development strategy of building a “Healthy China” as well as Shenzhen’s biotechnology industry to improve national and global health outcomes.
The strategy of iBHE is to build international first-class disciplines that provide comprehensive science solutions and awareness-based revolutionary technologies for human health and happiness by integrating pharmaceutical engineering, bioengineering, life sciences, medical sciences, chemical engineering, process and system engineering, materials engineering, pharmaceutical engineering, vaccine engineering, and cell engineering, and other advanced discipline clusters. We offer 5 PhD programs as well as four Master’s programs. We firmly implement internationalization, interdisciplinarity and innovation through all these programs and we aim to cultivate high-level academic, innovative entrepreneurial and managerial talents oriented to the needs of global health.
Division of Information Science and Technology
The Division of Information Science and Technology (DIST) was established in 2002 on the foundation of four disciplines: Information and Communication Engineering, Control Science and Engineering, Computer Science and Technology, and Electronic Science and Technology. DIST's objective is to cultivate technical and inventive individuals with worldwide competency by concentrating on the advancement of research into fundamental theories and practical technologies in the realm of electronic information. As a significant graduate training location for Tsinghua University in electronic information, it takes full advantage of the disciplines' competence and the Greater Bay Area's electronic information sector, contributing to world-class disciplines and economic expansion.
