Biological sciences are at the heart of innovation in biotechnology, medicine, food, agriculture, and environmental solutions. These discoveries often culminate in industrial products to generate novel drugs, biological treatments, medical devices and software, engineered crops, or cultivated foods. Our students at the Faculty of Biology gain not only excellent academic training but also get access to opportunities that can materialize their research and scientific studies into impactful careers in the industry and creative entrepreneurship.
