2.00 Credits
Introduction to Tissue Culture is a course designed to provide students with hands-on experience in the proper laboratory methodology and techniques associated with various cell and tissue cultures. The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the components of a tissue culture laboratory (equipment, instruments, etc.) and provide them with a basic understanding of the proper use and care of these components. Students will be exposed to various cell culture lines and learn how to handle and maintain different cells, prepare various media solutions, carry-out general tissue culture assays (such as transfections) and perform a batch scale-up of cells using bioreactors.

3.00 Credits
This course provides a specific approach to the main topics of biotechnology, starting with Genomics and Recombinant DNA Technology and Genetic Engineering, continuing with Proteomics, with protein expression, structure, processing, production, and purification. All these followed with examples of microbial biotechnology including: fermentation, bioreactors and industrial microbiology with biotechnology. It also includes biotechnology in plants, animals and agricultural industry, bioremediation and the environment, as well as aquatic biotechnology. There is a strong emphasis in biomedical and forensic biotechnology including vaccinology, pharmacogenomics, the human genome, regenerative medicine, gene therapy, cloning, and stem cell applications and implications.
-
2.00 Credits
This laboratory course includes a hands on experience for the students with some of the basic and common biotechnology laboratory techniques in the areas of genomics, proteomics, genetic engineering and recombinant DNA technology.
-
3.00 Credits
This lecture course provides a comprehensive approach to the concepts of biotechnology both in a historical and current context. It will take the students through the basic principles of genomics proteomics with DNA protein structure function. It will emphasize in the molecular biology aspects of genetic engineering and recombinant DNA technology. Ethical, legal, social concerns and implications of biotechnology will also be addressed. (*)
-
2.00 Credits
This laboratory course provides hands on experience for basic and common biotechnology laboratory techniques in the areas of laboratory safety, aseptic techniques, measurements and calculations, preparation of solutions, use of pH meters, spectrophotometers, centrifuges, etc., as well as training in specific biotechnology techniques, including DNA extraction and amplification, gene cloning, nucleic acids and protein isolation and identification. (*)
-
2.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide hands-on experience in some of the basic and essential instrumentation skills required in chemistry, molecular biology and biotechnology. Students will learn the basics of laboratory safety, aseptic technique, measurements and calculations and preparation of solutions/samples. This knowledge will then be applied to advanced instrumentation utilizing spectrophotometers, centrifuges, thermal cyclers, automated DNA sequencing by PAGE, GC/MS, FPLC, and bioreactors. Students will also gain a well-rounded understanding of the maintenance of these various instruments; from ordering supplies to requesting technical support and daily/monthly maintenance.
