Goal

The goal of the Biotechnology Department Master's Program is to train graduate students who can carry out studies in the fields of biotechnology, molecular biology, and genetic engineering, as well as have the competence to work in biotechnological enterprises related to the use of enzymes, microorganisms, animal and plant and cell cultures, biosynthesis of their products and genetic transformation.

Program Information

1. The master's program trains competent and successful specialists in all fields of biotechnology. It gives admitted students the opportunity to become experts in one of the most diverse subjects in the field. The program offers the opportunity to pursue a master's degree for students with undergraduate degrees in biotechnology, biology, bioengineering, molecular biology and genetics, biochemistry, agricultural biotechnology, and medicine who want to be the experts who contribute to the shaping of science and the future in the fields of Biotechnology and its applications.
2. There are six classrooms, a seminar hall, herbarium, biochemistry, and histology laboratories in executing the master's program. There is an internet infrastructure that provides access to courses, scientific books, periodicals, databases, and electronic resources; also, there is a central library with study rooms that provides uninterrupted service.
3. Ten full-time lecturers currently give master's education, including 3 Professor Doctors, 4 Associate Professors, 1 Assistant Professor, 1 Research Assistant, and 1 Academic Specialist.
