Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course, which focuses on biosensors and the basic principles of their design, is to provide detailed knowledge that biosensors are biomaterials or bioanalytical devices formed by combining biologically derivatized structures with electrochemical, optical, thermometric, piezoelectric, or magnetic conductors. It is also helpful to know where and why these biosensors should be used.

Learning Outcomes PO MME
The students who succeeded in this course:
LO-1 Can learn biosensor design techniques and to have knowledge about determining application areas according to their performance. PO-2 Can make connections between different disciplines and sub-fields that their field is related to by using their expert knowledge and skills, work in harmony in research groups.
PO-8 Can design theoretical, experimental, or modeling-based research that will contribute to progress in the field, develop new scientific methods, and apply a known method to a different field.
