生物学中的生物技术课程主要是为希望在生物技术公司从事研发工作的学生设计的。但是，该课程也为在大学或医学研究实验室担任实验室技术员的工作或在生物化学，分子和细胞生物学的研究生院提供培训。与其他生物学专业一样，从事生物技术专业的人也完成了生物学，化学，物理和数学等基础科学课程的严格核心课程。中级工作包括细胞生物学，遗传学和种群生物学。高级工作重点关注在生物技术行业中重要的生物学技术和领域，包括生物化学I，微生物学，免疫学，分子生物学和生物信息学。可以从动物生理学，发育生物学，内分泌学，组织学，生物化学II，神
The biotechnology track in biology is designed primarily for students who wish to work in research and development at biotechnology companies. However, this track also provides training for work as a laboratory technician in university or medical research labs, or for graduate school in biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology. Like other biology majors, those in the biotechnology track, complete a rigorous core of basic science courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and math. Intermediate level work includes cell biology, genetics, and population biology. Advanced work focuses on techniques and areas of biology that are important in the biotechnology industry, including Biochemistry I, Microbiology, Immunology, Molecular Biology, and Bioinformatics. A sixth elective course may be chosen from Animal Physiology, Developmental Biology, Endocrinology, Histology, Biochemistry II, Neurobiology, and Plant Physiology. All intermediate and advanced courses include lab work.
