Inductrial Genommics
Genomics are the exhaustive multidisciplinary study of genomes in terms of
gene numbers, patterns and functions. This science is now enjoying an
increasingly vast number of applications in various sectors such as
pharmaceutics, medicine, agriculture and related industries. The industrial use
of genomic findings is now a development strategy in the various sectors of
advanced biology. The EBI Master of Business Engineering scientific programme
in Industrial Genomics is aimed at giving in-depth training in the different
traditional and modern concepts of Molecular Biology associated with the many
genomic applications: Pharmacogenomics, Molecular diagnostics, Plant and animal
transgenesis, Gene and cell therapy, Recombinant proteins, DNA chips, etc.
By combining this scientific programme with the
MBE common core syllabus classes during their 6 months’ training at
EBI, students are able to envision these
problems from a project manager's viewpoint.
Students receiving this training are able to set up and manage applied
research tasks in public or private laboratories, utilise genomic findings in
small or medium sized firms and work as molecule production research managers in
the pharmaceutical industry.
They transfer genomic findings into the various Bioindustry sectors.
Examples of positions held by our students :
- Career scientist
- Junior product manager (diagnostic kit firm)
- Protein Expression Engineer and Protein Engineering
- Several Research scientists
- Two PHD students in Canada and the
Netherlands.
