BSc (Hons) Biotechnology (Shrewsbury)

... United Kingdom
... University of Chester

Course Overview

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; or 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 Darwin’s 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.

The course is very practical, making use of the University Centre’s suite of modern labs which includes a dedicated tissue and cell culture facility.
