Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary field of study that combines knowledge from life sciences and engineering. Its primary goal is to utilize living organisms in product development, testing, and manufacturing. In addition to general topics, students have the option to specialize in plant, animal, and microorganism biotechnology, which equips them with practical and theoretical knowledge. Our objective is to provide a strong foundation for future careers in the food and pharmaceutical industry, diagnostics, plant breeding companies, research institutions, and various other sectors. We place particular emphasis on cutting-edge topics such as bioinformatics, genomics, nanobiotechnology, and genetic engineering. Upon graduation, students will possess the skills to plan and execute biotechnological experiments and processes, as well as generate, interpret, and report high-quality biological data. They will also be adept at evaluating the suitability of specific methods and devices.
