专业概况

Ready to create vaccines or explore genetic modification? The field of biotechnology is vast, varied and rapidly growing. Biotechnology - combined with informatics - makes use of the huge, rational data sets provided by the 'omic' sciences. These offer significant opportunity for research, data mining and innovation in health and artificial intelligence.

To meet the increasing need for biotech specialists, we've carefully designed our Master of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics to give you everything you need to develop your career in this exciting field. Get the skills and knowledge to explore current and emerging technologies in human health, diagnostics, sustainability, food security, renewable energy and more.

You'll also choose to either specialise in advanced bioinformatics or undertake a research thesis – which includes 25-30 hours per week of experimental research with a leading researcher.

Learn in high-tech facilities such as the La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science (LIMS). Access world-class laboratories designed for biotechnology, biomedicine and biosecurity research.

Our graduates work as biotechnologists, technicians, and research and development scientists. You can find them in local and international bioindustries and biopharmaceutical companies such as CSL Behring, Seqirus and CSIRO.

You'll learn:

Bioinformatics

Apply technical skills to collect, store and analyse complex biological data, including genome and protein sequence information.

Practical biotechnology

Gain practical skills in PCR, cloning, protein expression, protein purification and immunoblotting laboratory techniques.

Bio-business management

Work in groups to produce and market a virtual product. Receive career development support from staff and industry professionals.

Scientific communication skills

Build your expertise writing reports and presenting data. Gain knowledge of copyright, plagiarism, databases, journals and online resources.

Proteomics and genomics

Gain experience with advanced technologies such as CRISPR-mediated gene editing, next generation sequencing and mass spectrometry.

Protein chemistry

Carry out a range of laboratory techniques to purify and characterise protein preparations.

The qualification awarded on graduation is recognised in the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) as Level 9.

CAREER OUTCOMES

Biotechnology is one of the fastest-growing areas in science. With a high demand for skilled graduates, you'll be well placed to pursue roles like:

Biotechnologist

• Work in biopharmaceutical research and development.
• Design and create biological systems to produce medically relevant products.
• Keep abreast of new strategies in the field of molecular biology.

Bioinformatician

• Advise stakeholders on the study, design and interpretation of data.

Research assistant

• Perform and analyse experiments, develop assays, provide technical support to research teams and manage the day-to-day running of a laboratory.
