Course Outline


Testimonials

As an mechanical engineer working in life sciences, my education in biotechnology has been informal, unstructured and lacking a foundation of understanding. Biotech 101 was a well designed course that presented terms and concepts in a manner that gave them context and made them understandable. Dr. Paul Barran did a great job of engaging the entire room, and paced the course in a way that allowed for discussion, questions and expansion of ideas. Biotech 101 was hands-down one of the most valuable short courses I have attended — it filled important gaps in my knowledge, leaving me more equipped to engage in my job and career.
