PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The program is aimed at training highly qualified specialists in the field of instrumentation engineering who possess knowledge in computer modeling and analysis of biological objects and systems, as well as development of biomaterials. The program provides knowledge in such cutting-edge fields as biotechnology and bioengineering, biopolymers, information systems and modeling, molecular spectroscopy, analytical and physical chemistry, the fundamentals of biotechnical processes automation, etc. The program's graduates work in the field of new production technologies that make use of microbiological synthesis, biocatalysis, genetic engineering and nanotechnology; operation and quality management of biotechnical production in compliance with national and international regulations; conducting raw material control and so on.
PROGRAM RELEVANCE
Biotechnology and biotechnical systems are among the high-priority trends in today's world. Specialists in this field are highly sought-after in high-technology fields of economy, medicine and pharmaceutics. Their development is currently hindered by the lack of highly qualified specialists trained in the field of information systems and means of measuring living systems, biological structures and biopolymers.
