Specializations
Delivered through specific courses and intensive industry project
- Pharmaceutical Biotechnology
Pharmaceutical biotechnology is a relatively new and growing field in which the principles of biotechnology are applied to the development of drugs. A majority of therapeutic drugs in the current market are bioformulations, such as antibodies, nucleic acid products and vaccines. Such bioformulations are developed through several stages that include: understanding the principles underlying health and disease; the fundamental molecular mechanisms governing the function of related biomolecules; synthesis and purification of the molecules; determining the product shelf life, stability, toxicity and immunogenicity; drug delivery systems; patenting; and clinical trials. The domain encompasses knowledge in rDNA technology such as cloning genes encoding the protein of interest into an appropriate cloning vector, finding suitable host cells to express the protein (eg Escherichia coli, yeast, insect cells, plants, or animals), designing protocols to obtain highly pure proteins (eg chromatographic purification via size-exclusion, ion-exchange, hydrophobic interaction or affinity) and protein engineering to generate mutants and/or facilitate post-translational modifications. - Green Chemicals & Bio-Products
A range of environment friendly products can be produced by biotechnology. These are known as green products or sustainable alternatives of petrochemical derived products. This specialization will cover production of green products ranging from enzymes and biocatalysts, biofuels, biobased platform chemicals, among others. Global market of enzyme is worth of $ 10.6 billion and it is expected to reach $14.9 billion by 2027. Similarly, global market of biofuels is worth of $ 141.32 billion and it is expected to reach $ 307.01 billion by 2030. Therefore, biotech professionals specialized in these fields are expected to have excellent employment opportunities in future. - Digital Agriculture
The Global Digital Agriculture market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 10.26% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$20.713 billion in 2025 from US$11.527 billion in 2019. Digital Agriculture is known as the use of novel, advanced and innovative technologies, integrated into one specific system or software, to allow various stakeholders such as farmers, researchers, and others, that are working within the agriculture system or a value chain, to enhance their crop yield and food production. The specialization focuses on; i) Gather farming data, including historical, predictive modelling and environmental insights to choose suitable crops with higher yields; ii) Measure performance of the site by capturing data in realtime; iii) Use digital farming data (soil, crop health, weather, etc.) to provide decision support for using exact amount or water, nutrition and optimize pest control; iv) Increase farm’s economic and environmental sustainability; and v) Predict weather changes and react proactively. - Personalized Medicine
The global precision medicine market size was valued at USD 66.1 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 175.64 billion by 2030 and poised to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.5% during the forecast period 2022 to 2030. The genomics industry has a significant role to play in delivering on the promise of genomic medicine and its integration into healthcare. Precision medicine (PM) refers to tailoring of medical treatment depending on an individual’s genetic characteristics and relies on the use of data and genomics through diagnostic testing and analytics. It relies on the idea of the right intervention at the right dose to the right patient and at the right time. It is expected to deliver improved “quality use of medicines” resulting in improved quality of life for patients, as well as reduce adverse outcomes and drive down costs of treatment.
