Biotechnology (Shrewsbury) BSc (Hons)

... United Kingdom
... University of Chester (Warrington)

Course Overview

Advances in biotechnology underpin developments in areas that we have taken for granted: health, food, and the environment. These areas are global challenges, and we are now looking to advances in biotechnology for entirely new approaches and solutions for existing problems. Biotechnology involves creating and developing technologies, products, and processes that combat disease, facilitate the production of existing and entirely novel foodstuffs, and help better care for our environment. This course is for you if you: have an interest in how organisms can be cultured and manipulated to provide useful foods and medicines; wish to study how to optimize product development and purification; want to understand how we can manipulate genes or gene expression to improve the production of useful compounds or want to contribute effectively to ethical issues associated with biotechnology. During this course, you will help shape the future of biotechnology; study the manipulation of living organisms in the birthplace of Darwin; walk Darwins thinking path at The Mount while pondering how we can use the principles of evolution to improve food and drug production and sit in the library where Darwin was schooled.
