本课程是生物功能材料本科专业的学科基础选修课，该课程以高分子化学、生物材料前沿、有机化学等基础课为基础，在了解生物材料基本知识的情况下，学习生物可降解高分子范畴，各类生物可降解高分子的性质、分布、合成、降解机理及生物功能乃至可能的应用领域，为培养学生成为从事生物材料基础研究、应用研究和技术开发研究的综合型技术人才奠定基础。This course is a fundamental elective course for students majoring in bio-functional materials, which is based on polymer chemistry, polymer physics, organic chemistry, biomedical materials, advance in biomaterials and so on. The main goals are to help student master the category, the relationship between intrinsic structures and their speciality, biodegraded mechanism and applicable field. A very important goal is to lay the foundation for students so that they can become promising talents who will engage in basic research or applied research in material science in the future.
