Biotechnology

If you choose to enroll for the Biotechnology degree, you will train as a professional able to perform experimental protocols applying biomolecular, biochemical, microbiological, gene and proteomic, biocomputational and cell methodologies. The Course includes subjects from the field of biotechnologies: pharmaceuticals and diagnostics, human and animal health, food safety, environment and agriculture. The Course therefore includes many basic disciplines, which will enable you to work in the typical biotechnological areas: biotechnological industries in the food and agriculture sector, pharmaceuticals and the development of diagnostic methodologies, zootechnical, chemical and bioinformatical industries and for breeding laboratory animals and the production of transgenic animals; control laboratories for the environment and foodstuffs; public and private research institutes.
The Course also deals with the public perception of the products of biotechnological Companies.
The practical laboratories and experimental activities are a fundamental part of the Course, as is the obligatory internship.
After graduation, you can therefore find employment with Companies in various fields (bio-sanitary, industrial, veterinary, food industry, biotechnological, pharmaceutical), public and private research bodies, agencies, and multi-disciplinary professional offices. You can also work as medical/pharmaceutical sales representatives, Biologists, Biochemists, Food biotechnicians, Agronomists and Specialists in Life Sciences.
