Biotechnology is a dynamically developing discipline whose main goal is to find biologically based solutions to various industrial, agricultural, and biomedical challenges. The Biotechnology BSc course at the University of Debrecen is based on the following pillars: (i) completion of a broad-spectrum natural science and IT module, (ii) acquisition of basic skills in molecular biology, and (iii) transfer of basic knowledge of natural science, IT and molecular biology in the rich repertoire of biotechnology subjects. It is important that we provide students with a large number of laboratory practices, with the help of which students can become familiar with the main branches of modern biotechnology.
