The University Bachelor of Biological Engineering Technology (BUT GB) trains profession of senior technician or assistant engineer.

This training allows students to carry out and analyze experiments in the field of life, research, analyze and present data, make proposals in response to a biological problem.

The BUT GB food science and biotechnology course allows you to work in the fields of agri-food, biotechnology, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. The students learn to innovate in food sciences and biotechnology, organize the production of food and biomolecules, leading Quality management, Health, Safety (QHSE), and the environment in the food and beverage industriesiotechnology.
