"Build to Learn" offers a new research paradigm for understanding the laws and essence of life. By constructing biological systems "from the bottom up", it explores the underlying principles of functional emergence as biological complexity increases throughout life's origin and evolution.

"Build to Use" demonstrates the immense application potential of synthetic biology. Through biological design and advancements in enabling technologies, it drives iterative upgrades in biotechnology and transformative shifts in the bio-manufacturing industry, providing scientific solutions to address the sustainable development challenges confronting human society.

The Faculty of Synthetic Biology, working in close synergy with the Institute of Synthetic Biology at the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a world-class faculty team and cutting-edge research and teaching platforms. These resources provide students with exceptional learning and innovation opportunities, enabling young scholars to pursue and fulfill their aspirations.
