Program Information

The Biotechnology Programs consists of a total of 70-72 semester hours of high-quality lecture and laboratory courses and a hands-on internship or "Capstone Experience" in a local research/biotechnology laboratory. The program provides the student with the technical skills and knowledge to work in a number of biotechnology fields. It also provides a strong foundation for students wishing to pursue a bachelor's and/or graduate degree. Contact the department for more information on transferring your course work to a 4-year institution. The college has several articulation agreements in place. Students should complete all prerequisite courses or already possess a science related degree before starting the biotechnology courses.
