Special case : Biotechnology

Memandangkan ada beberapa orang samurians yg bertanya mengenai Biotechnology, diri ini rasa terpanggil untuk menjawab serba ringkas tentang 

1) What is Biotech?
2) Includes what?
3) Prospect

Jadi secara ringkasnya akan diterangkan secara ringkas especially berdasarkan program Biotechnology di US or lebih mudah di RIT sendiri

Biotechnology includes multidisciplinary of :

Biology
Microbiology
Biochemistry
Molecular Biology
Genetics
Chemistry
Chemical and Process Engineering

application of biology system and organism utk manufacturing and service industries.
dia ada bnyk cabang, cnth cam plant, industrial, medical etc2.

So basically boleh dikatakan Biotechnology is a very broad course. Kalau sapa2 pernah dengar genetic engineering, DNA recombinant, Biomedical, semua adalah parts of Biotech. So Biotech major basically akan touch sikit2 setiap subjek yang disebutkan di atas. 

Kesilapan yang pernah dilakukan dulu adalah menganggap Biotech will be about Bio no Chemistry and no Physic, No Physic is true but not Chemistry. Even Biotech undergraduate boleh further study untuk master dalam Biochemistry or ada lagi yang pelik macam chemical engineering.

Basically di RIT Biotechnology program student akan ada banyak lab. Various lab techniques akan digunakan seperti cell transformation, cloning cell n so on2... ble google kalau xfaham.

Di US xbanyak universiti yg offer Biotechnology program, ada ramai kawan2 yg terpaksa amek major cam biochemistry sebab xde specific major Biotechnology but RIT special case.

Untuk prospect Biotech pulak boleh lihat link dibawah yang dibuat khas oleh senior RIT Nico Abel credit belongs to him.
