• Introduction

    The Biotechnology and Genomics track within the K4B program integrates Biotechnology, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapeutics, Computational Biology and Genomics, and Bioinformatics to prepare students for advanced roles in the rapidly evolving fields of biotechnology and genetic research. This interdisciplinary track equips students with the skills to develop biotechnological applications, perform molecular diagnostics, analyze genetic data using computational tools, and apply bioinformatics to solve complex biological problems. Coursework covers techniques in biotechnology, genetic engineering, molecular diagnostic tools, computational analysis of genomic data, and bioinformatics software used for biological research. The program emphasizes rigorous quizzing practices, including scenario-based diagnostic challenges, genetic data analysis projects, and interactive lab simulations to ensure comprehensive understanding of biotechnology and genomics concepts. Upon successful completion, students receive a Specialization Certificate in Biotechnology and Genomics, accompanied by a detailed Courses Grade Report and a General Grade. Additionally, students are awarded Course-Specific Certificates in areas such as Biotechnology Applications, Molecular Diagnostics and Therapeutics, Genomics and Computational Biology, and Bioinformatics. These certifications validate their expertise, enhancing employability in sectors such as biotechnology research, genetic engineering, pharmaceuticals, molecular diagnostics, and bioinformatics.
