Biotechnology is the combination of biology, chemistry and biochemical engineering for industrial production, design of bioactive molecules and metabolic pathway engineering of cells. Modern biotechnology is important to research and development in biomedicine, and to production of agricultural crops and animals. The Master's programme in Biotechnology at Aalborg University gives you a strong background and skills to contribute to solve the challenges regarding resources and energy, nutrition and human health, sustainability and climate issues.
ACADEMIC CONTENT
Waste water treatment and biorefinery production plants for recovery of valuable nutrients and biofuel production rely on biotechnology with regard to design and control of microbial and enzymatic processes. Inevitably, biotechnology is the key to a green and sustainable development of the World and our future lives.
Important theoretical and experimental areas of the Masters programme include microbial and cell cultures, bioactive molecules, experimental molecular biology and gene technology, genomics and bioinformatics.
The programme is a full time study and you will experience that you spend most working hours at the university occupied with course teaching and experimental laboratory project work in groups with fellow students. During your Thesis project you will be involved in ongoing research and be part of a research group with faculty staff at the section of biotechnology.
