Overview
With the increasing need for “green” industrial processes that would be both cost-efficient and sustainable, the contemporary world relies on industrial biotechnology experts more than ever. KTU’s master study programme in Industrial Biotechnology focuses on new research areas, which are bridging the competencies’ gap between different science and industry fields: production of bioproducts, synthesis of biologically active compounds, enzyme technology, bioprocess engineering, environmental biotechnology, renewable technology.
KTU MSc Industrial Biotechnology study programme equips its graduates with the skills to develop, produce, and analyse chemical compounds, materials, and fuel by applying innovative biotechnology methods. During your studies, you will gain competencies to model, optimise, and manage bio-processes and will be able to use your skills and knowledge in industrial biotechnology to produce biofuel, chemical substances or consumer goods of high-added value.
KTU industrial biotechnology graduates are praised by the employers for their acquired technological knowledge, understanding of contemporary research equipment, and excellent planning and management skills.
You will acquire education for working in the most rapidly growing global industry sector
The study programme contains fully completed and continuously enhanced technical infrastructure for laboratory research
These studies have been designed to combine fundamental and practical knowledge
Career opportunities
After graduation, students will be able to:
perform analytical analysis of various technological processes, plan and conduct experimental research, analyse and assess experiment’s results;
select suitable technological parameters, apply computer modelling in biotechnological processes;
work with biotechnological equipment and devices used in production of bio products;
apply assessment instruments for financial efficiency of technological development projects.
Students will gain competencies of:
application of knowledge in formulation and solving of engineering and biotechnical problems;
selection of biotechnological equipment, analytical and modelling techniques understanding of biosynthesis stages of bio products;
knowledge and characterisation of biological system in production of bio products.
