Course overview

Imagine bringing a new cancer diagnostic test from the lab safely to market, via patent applications, through regulatory and quality assurance systems, capital raising, marketing and finally sales. Each step requires advanced technical skills but also business acumen and communications skills. Biotechnology uses fundamental biological and medical knowledge to develop new processes and products in health, agribusiness, food and other areas of human technology. The Master of Biotechnology gives you the opportunity to study all aspects of the biotechnology product pipeline, and you will have the chance to put your knowledge into practice with one of our industry partners.
