Introduction
Biotechnology is one of the fastest growing technologies that have revolutionized the world. It has far reaching implications for medicine and agriculture and consequently for society beyond anything previously imagined in the history of science. It is defined as any technique that uses living organism or substances from those organisms, to make or modify as product, to improve plants or animals or to develop micro-organism for specific uses. Thus biotechnology encompasses tools and techniques including those of recombinant DNA (Deoxyribo Nuclic Acid) Technology. The living organism to be improved can be either plants, animals or micro-organism; and the products from these organisms can be new or rare, of made more abundant than what have existed before.Futher more the distinction holder of B.Sc. biotechnology also have chance for the direct entry to Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) program in USA.
SANN International College offers a four year B.Sc. Biotechnology course in 8 semesters. It imparts comprehensive knowledge on modern biotechnology backed by practical experience in well equipped laboratories of Molecular Biology, Recombinant DNA Technology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology, Agricultural Biotechnology, Food Technology, Industrial Biotechnology, Genetics, Molecular and Human Genetics, Medical Biotechnology etc.
