生物技术学士学位课程为学生提供了有关现代生物技术及其应用的广泛知识。藻类生物燃料，干细胞疗法和新的疾病诊断方法只是生物技术人员正在研究的几个项目。该课程使学生对生物体的生物过程以及在开发新药，环境管理，数据分析和生物传感器技术中操纵这些过程所需的技能有充分的了解。学生将获得现代生物技术方面的广泛知识以及道德，法律和商业流程方面的实践技能。
The Bachelor of Biotechnology provides students with a broad knowledge of modern biotechnology and its applications. Algal biofuels, stem cell therapy and new methods of disease diagnosis are just a few projects that biotechnologists are working on today.<br><br>This course provides students with a good understanding of biological processes of living organisms and the skills required to manipulate these processes in the development of new medicines and environmental management. Students gain broad knowledge of modern biotechnology and practical skills in ethics, law and business processes.<br><br>Biotechnology is a key science of the future and graduates have high employment rates due to the course's strong professional and industry focus. Graduates of this course gain a professional qualification in biological science and a strong foundation in the commercial aspects of biotechnology.<br><br>Students choose one from the following two majors:<br><br>medical biotechnology – students gain knowledge and skills to work in both the biotechnology industry and biomedical science research. It is an exciting and rapidly evolving area, leading to development of a new generation of pharmaceuticals, vaccines, hormones and anti-inflammatory agents using this technology.<br>environmental biotechnology – students gain knowledge and skills to address environmental issues, such as the removal of pollution, renewable energy generation or biomass production, by exploiting biological processes. Students learn how to remediate contaminated sites, develop more sustainable products (such as converting algae to fuel) or use microbes to manage waste.
