Master of Science in Biotechnology
Biotechnology is considered an explosive and new industrial frontier. Yet we’ve been practicing it for as long as we’ve been baking bread and enjoying cheese and beer.
Today, we continue to capitalize on nature’s toolbox to enrich our lives, whether we are harnessing cellular processes to create life-saving vaccines, using biofuels to rescue our planet, or solving hunger with enhanced food nutrients.
Recent biotechnological advances are addressing our world’s most pressing challenges and every day, scientists come closer to even more breakthroughs that help us to live longer and healthier lives.
Our interdisciplinary program combines advanced training in biology, chemistry, chemical engineering, and pharmaceutical sciences with critical business skills to bring you to the forefront of discovery and innovation and accelerate your career. Our skill-based, stackable, credentials create problem solvers and critical thinkers.
