Completion
of the program will
enable students to:
- enter
the full-time biotechnology industry workforce
- be competitive
for research jobs while at four year institutions
- take a part-time
job while finishing a college degree
The Lab
Skills courses are run in a manner to closely simulate the work
environment in the biotech industry, including the use of OSHA
standards and FDA Good Laboratory Practices standards and industry notebooks skills. A one hour "staff meeting"
is held weekly for scheduling and for introduction of new skills.
Performance evaluations are held
twice each semester and consist of notebook assessment, resume
evaluation and skills evaluation.
Application for the Biological Technologies Certificate Program may be made
at any time. Applicants are on a first-come first-served basis.
Applicants are accepted for the next Biology 102A course and
are encouraged to spend the intervening time working on the
general requirements, increasing their computer skills and participating
in other program activities.
Students with previous coursework from other institutions may submit transcripts and petition for equivalency or substitution of courses.
