The PhD in Biological Materials Science at Donghua University in Shanghai is a four-year full-time doctoral program that trains advanced interdisciplinary researchers at the intersection of materials science, life sciences and biomedical engineering. It is offered through the College of Biological Science and Medical Engineering (formerly Biological Science & Technology) and is designed to equip students with deep theoretical knowledge and hands-on research expertise in the design, synthesis, characterization and application of biological materials for medical, diagnostic and life-science-related uses. Chinese universities typically structure this as a secondary doctoral discipline drawing on support from the chemical, materials and textile engineering first-level doctoral fields, reflecting Donghua’s strength across these science and engineering areas.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements.
It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
