Biotechnology with French for Science

Course summary

Embrace the opportunity to learn a foreign language while studying biotechnology. By studying a language in conjunction with biochemistry, you can combine your training in both fields as you learn how to present scientific and technical materials in French. As a bridge between biology and technology, biotechnology explores the commercialisation of technology, entrepreneurship, intellectual property, and patents. You'll benefit from our internationally leading research programme, as well as lectures and case studies from business and academic leaders. This course will prepare you for advanced study in biotechnology as you explore a range of topics. You'll get a solid grounding in biological chemistry, molecular biology, integrative cell biology, and genes and genomics in the first two years. In your third year, you'll have the opportunity to attend lectures and conduct research at a university in your chosen country. A wide range of optional modules are available in your final year so you can pursue your interests and complete a research project or dissertation. The skills you develop will prepare you for advanced research and career opportunities in industries such as healthcare and biochemistry.
