Bioengineering

Director's Welcome

Paulette Spencer

Dr. Spencer performs research in the area of biomaterials, with a particular focus on understanding the fundamental phenomena controlling biological interactions at material interfaces, and the development of non-destructive techniques for analyzing solid-liquid interfacial interactions in biological systems. Her work serves as a catalyst for collaborative investigations focused on applying the principles of biological systems to the design, synthesis and development of new materials.

The bioengineering program at the University of Kansas School of Engineering (KUSoE) provides an exciting intellectual environment for a graduate student. We consider our students to be our greatest asset, and working with them to achieve joint success under our mission is our greatest accomplishment. We are committed to the training of outstanding interdisciplinary professionals, who are equipped with skills and a philosophy to provide twenty-first century leadership in bioengineering. We invite you to examine the sections on our website in detail. Should you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
