Specialization Technical Biology
The Sub-Institute 2 - Technical Biology - of the Institute of Bio- and Food Technology, which belongs to the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Process Engineering and started its work in August 2003, is responsible for teaching the basic biological subjects in the Bachelor's degree program "Bioengineering" (BIW) and is involved in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs "General Biology" and "Applied Biology". In the Master's programs "Bioengineering" (BIW) and "Chemical Engineering" (CIW), the focus in teaching is on aspects of industrial biotechnology, applied microbiology, industrial genetics and industrial biocatalysis (see below).
Detailed information on the individual courses can be found on the pages of the Faculty of CIW/VT or in our presentation.
