Bachelor of Science in Biotechnology

Program Overview

This degree will stimulate your critical thinking and problem-solving skills to help you to be competitive across all science-led disciplines.

Your science degree begins with a suite of introductory subjects in which you will learn and explore core science concepts across physical, life, data and mathematical science disciplines and develop and strengthen key scientific and transferable skills, providing a transformative learning experience that will underpin your future studies and careers.


Major: Biotechnology

Biotechnologists play a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge, developing innovative products and addressing societal challenges through the application of biotechnology principles and techniques. Their work spans across various disciplines and industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, healthcare, environmental sustainability and industrial bio-manufacturing.

Biotechnology uses different forms of life that include living organisms (microbes, plants, fungi and animals), their components (such as cells, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids) or biological systems to create innovative and sustainable solutions for our day-to-day lives. The Biotechnology major gives you breadth of knowledge across life sciences and related disciplines, practical skills in the lab and field, and a specialisation in your chosen area.
