EB 3411 - Applications of Biotechnology II

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This course is a continuation of Principles of Biotechnology (EB 2410 ) and Applications of Biotechnology (EB 3410 ) and covers applications of biotechnology.  New modern biotechnology techniques and contemporary issues are discussed along with problem-based applications. (prereq: EB 3410 )
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
  • Apply the biotechnology tools previously learned toward applications in biomolecular engineering.
  • Discuss new developments in a variety of biotechnology fields in regard to the biomolecular engineering field.
  • Discuss the components necessary for founding a biotechnology company
  • Apply their knowledge of biology, chemistry, and biotechnology to solve basic problems in the biotechnology and biomolecular engineering field. 

Prerequisites by Topic
  • knowledge of core biotechnology applications such as bacterial transformation, cloning, forensic analysis, DNA extraction, PCR, protein extraction, Western blotting, ELISA and plant biotechnology
  • ability to apply the core biotechnology applications to biomolecular engineering in a manufacturing setting, i.e. scale-up
  • knowledge of how biotechnology is used in current practice and in the field of biomolecular engineering
  • ability to use biology, chemistry and biotechnology to solve basic problems in the biotechnology and biomolecular engineering field
