Master of Biotechnology Research Extensive

Equip yourself with advanced scientific skills and the business, legal and regulatory understanding needed to translate discoveries from the laboratory to real life.

This program is designed for scientists who wish to increase their technical and research skills in core areas of biotechnology, and to obtain a more extended laboratory immersion than is available in the regular Master of Biotechnology.

Learn from entrepreneurial scientists who have successfully commercialised their discoveries in this rapidly emerging industry. You'll receive hands-on training applying cutting-edge techniques in state-of-the-art laboratory and research facilities similar to professional working environments.

Select from more than 30 courses, allowing you to tailor your studies to suit your interests and career goals. Specialise in one of 5 fields of biotechnology study: animal agriculture, medical, molecular imaging, plant agriculture, or synthetic biology and industrial.

Apply your expertise to a research project of your choice, working alongside leading UQ researchers or with one of UQ’s industry partners.

Put your learning into practice through internships, placements and international study options that focus on research and development, commercialisation, marketing and the business of science.

This program also provides strong preparation for entry into a PhD program.
