This program provides students with the laboratory skills, technical knowledge, fundamental understanding, and employability skills for careers in the Biotechnology and Life Science industries. Students will experience an integrated curriculum and applied learning environment that focuses on scenarios relevant to current innovations in the growing fields of Biotechnology and Life Sciences. 

Agricultural biotechnology examines agriculture and the natural world, emphasizing the relationships between food production, the environment, science and society. The program focuses on the life sciences, with prominence given to the application of biotechnology in agriculture. It also delves into agriculture’s associated sectors including: government, policy development, farm production, environmental implications and agricultural sciences.

Biotechnology enterprises benefit from leaders who are skilled in the life sciences—and have strong business acumen. Aspiring biotech entrepreneurs need a solid understanding of intellectual property and law.

The subject opens up to a broader view of life sciences and provides knowledge, application, and the improvement of biological laws in nature to create useful products in life. The COVID-19 pandemic is a crucial premise for emphasizing the significance of the Biotechnology program in supporting the process of re-establishing a safe condition in a new situation through the invention of vaccines prevention, COVID-19 treatment drugs, research and production of biochemical test kits, PCR, etc.

The Industrial Biotechnology program is carried out by the Faculty of Biotechnology and Food Sciences. Industrial Biotechnology is a degree program taught entirely in English. It integrates biological and technical sciences to exploit enzymes, organisms, and cells to produce products. Industrial Biotechnology is for individuals who are interested in making use of biological systems, living organisms, and enzymes to create or modify specific products or processes.

Suffolk University Law School's Master of Science in Law: Life Sciences (MSLL) graduate program is for those seeking to gain the knowledge and tools needed to pursue or further a career in the life sciences sector. Whether you're new, experienced, or wanting to make a career change, the MSLL accommodates the growing demand for professionals with specialized training.

At the Cyprus Institute of Neurology & Genetics (CING) we encourage our students to embark on the journey of Biotechnology, making a difference and a positive contribution to science and society. Biotechnology is undoubtedly important for its implications in various sectors of everyday life, utilizing cellular and bio-molecular processes that pave the way for the generation of cutting-edge new technologies and products that help improve life and nature in general. In particular, Biotechnology is the technology that uses living microorganisms to develop or create different products. Examples include the use of yeast in cheese and bread making, and the use of viral vectors for the creation of human vaccines (ie SARS-CoV-2 vaccine). Overall, recent advances in Biotechnology had a positive impact on the production of healthy food, improvement of the medical sector, reducing the world’s environmental footprint, and reducing the rate of infectious diseases. As a result, Biotechnology is widely considered to be the engine of the global economy in the 21st century.

M.Sc. in Biotechnology Engineering invests continual efforts in providing students with hands-on experience in laboratory classes that develop skills and experience in engineering in three major clusters: Medical Biotechnology, Nanobiotechnology, Energy, and Environmental Biotechnology. The broad topics of research covered by BTE include microbiology, biochemistry, genetic engineering, renewable energy, nutraceuticals, medical sciences, biological drugs, tissue engineering, stem cells, and synthetic biology.

The Bachelor of Biotechnology (Honours) program offers students a comprehensive understanding of biological sciences with a focus on practical and research skills. It combines core coursework in areas...

The international master’s program focuses on Industrial Biotechnology and Processes for Bioeconomy and encompasses integrated learning in life sciences, chemical engineering, bioprocess engineering, sustainability, environmental regulations and economics, and bioethical issues. The attractiveness of this educational program lies in producing graduate students with cross-disciplinary skills and expertise suitable for international careers in the emerging field of a sustainable bio-based economy. This program is provided by INSA Toulouse and Toulouse INP.

The Master in Cellular and Molecular Biotechnology (CMB) Over the last decade, significant methodological and conceptual advances in the life sciences area have enabled the development of the so-called “new biology.” This new biology is mainly based on the ability to study cells at a molecular level thanks to the increasing availability of genomic sequences of many species and the possibility to determine, in a comprehensive way, gene expression profiles as well as the interactions between biological macromolecules.

The aim of the program “Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Analysis” is to prepare highly qualified biotechnology specialists with knowledge of biotechnology and pharmaceutical analysis, able to develop, optimize and implement fermentation processes, and genetic engineering technologies, analyze and optimize separation and purification processes, able to properly perform qualitative and quantitative evaluation of analytes or continue doctoral studies.

The Academic Program in BSc in Biotechnology offered by the Faculty of Pharmacy leads to the degree of Biotechnologist. The program provides a deep theoretical understanding of natural sciences with hands-on experience in cutting-edge technologies in biotechnology. The diploma issued by the Faculty of Pharmacy is accepted by all European Union member states and several other countries. The program aims to educate students to become immediately employable after graduation, hence industrial or research laboratory placements for sufficient work experience are integral parts of the program. Using state-of-the-art laboratory techniques students can also experience laboratory research and have a great variety of further education possibilities to choose from in medical, pharmaceutical, environmental, and food biotechnology.

The program contains a wide range of specialist subjects (modeling of bioprocesses, regulation of biotechnological processes, separation processes in biotechnology, laboratory of technological and biotechnological processes, biotechnology of natural resources, etc.), which, together with bioanalytical and elective subjects (bioanalytics, sensors, and biosensors, microbioanalytics) constitute a comprehensive offer for all graduates interested in the field of biotechnology.

The MSc in Bioeconomy: Biotechnology and Law Programme is being offered by the School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Economics of the University Center of International Programmes of Studies of the International Hellenic University.
