Biotechnology plays a critical role in the battles against hunger, disease and pollution. It is used in developing precision medicines and gene therapies, environmental decontamination to restore polluted spaces and engineering crops to improve their yield and nutrition. This program will be delivered in a hybrid format in the Fall semester. A career in biotechnology holds many opportunities to make an impact in government, industry, education and medical facilities. There is a growing demand for skilled technicians, lab technologists and research assistants. You could work in life sciences, agriculture, food production, pharmaceuticals, and sanitation or health research. Graduates also find opportunities in regulation and enforcement, quality control and sales. Study in the newly equipped Bay of Quinte Skills Centre: Hands-on learning combines classroom theory and practical, lab-based instruction. Work in state-of-the-art Instrumentation and Molecular Biology labs equipped with PCR and DNA sequencing technology. Get experience with a wide variety of instrumentation used in genetics, microbiology, fermentation and forensics. Get on-the-job, practical experience with field placements in the second and third year.
