About:
A Poster Presentation on Biology for Engineers was conducted on 16th May 2026 as per the VTU curriculum to help students understand biological concepts, biomimicry, and their applications in engineering and technology, under subject code BBOK407 by Dr. Madhavi Magi.

Objectives
• To familiarize the students with the basic biological concepts and their engineering applications.
• To enable the students with an understanding of bio design principles to create novel devices and structures.
• To provide the students an appreciation of how biological systems can be re-designed as substitute products for natural systems.
• To motivate the students to develop interdisciplinary vision of biological engineering.
Outcomes
• Elucidate the basic biological concepts via relevant industrial applications and case studies.
• Evaluate the principles of design and development, for exploring novel bioengineering projects.
• Corroborate the concepts of biomimetics for specific requirements.
• Think critically towards exploring innovative biobased solutions for socially relevant problems.
