Amity Institute of Biotechnology (AIB), Jaipur

Biotechnology is the use of biological processes and components to provide useful products, services and tools for a variety of applications. It uses knowledge from a variety of disciplines such as molecular biology, biochemistry, chemistry, microbio lecular biology, biochemistry, chemistry, microbiology, chemical engineering and computing. This course is designed to provide biotechnologists and non-biotechnologists with a basic understanding of the theory, principles, techniques and potential of this rapidly moving field. Topics covered include scientific principles, overview of tools (recombinant DNA, genomics and gene arrays, proteomics, bioinformatics, etc.), biopharmaceutical product development, biomanufacturing strategies (protein expression, fermentation, cell culture, downstream processing and purification), and types of products and their applications in medicine. The course format includes a combination of lecture with interactive group discussions. A detailed technical understanding of the key advanced methods used in the contemporary biotechnology sector and fundamentals of the biotechnology industry. An appreciation of how these techniques are applied both in biotechnology and in advanced research. Acquired the knowledge to enable them to critically appraise new data arising from the use of these techniques and to interpret the implications of such data. Developed an understanding of the commercial, financial and regulatory context in which the biotechnology sector operates. Managers, group leaders, supervisors, scientists and technicians from R&D and manufacturing units in biotech organizations who need an integrated overview of the field. Engineering, validation and quality control/quality assurance staff moving into the biotechnology field. Amity Institute of Biotechnology (AIB) has a sharp mission to impart world class knowledge in the field of Biotechnology. To be one of the most emerging branches with a representation of all field of science and have capacity to solve problems of day to day life.
