COLLEGE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY

1. About Misr University:

The Presidential Decree Number 245 established Misr University for

Science & Technology (MUST) in the year 1996 under the leadership of its

founder, the late Professor Soad Kafafi. The university was built using

contemporary and advance architectural design available, which has put the

university at the forefront of private Egyptian universities.

2. About College of Biotechnology:

The Presidential Decree Number 283 established the College of

Biotechnology at Misr University for Science & Technology in the year

2006 under the leadership of Mr. Khalid Altoukhy, Chancellor & President

of the Board of Trustees.

2.1. Vision:

At the college of biotechnology, Misr University for Science and

Technology, we are seeking to be one of the leading institutions in

education, research and serving the community in biotechnological

applications in medicine, pharmacy, industry, agriculture, and environment

and keeping up with the ever-growing biotechnology revolution.

2.2. Mission:

As part of Misr University for Science & Technology (MUST), the

College of Biotechnology is aiming to prepare and train its graduates for

the scientific life and developing their skills in biotechnological

applications in the fields of human health, agricultural and industrial

productions, and food and environmental security. This is achieving

through advanced educational programs and distinctive scientific and

practical activities in education, research, community serving and

environmental development.

3. Introduction to Biotechnology Education

Biotechnology is the science of the 21st Century to meet the global

challenges in the fields of healthcare, food security, industrial development

and environmental conservation.

2

3.1. Medical biotechnology:

Medical biotechnology is the newest area of medicine.

Molecular medicine is becoming fundamental to almost every aspect

of healthcare delivery, assess with diagnosis of disease, therapeutic

choice, therapeutic outcome monitoring, prognosis, prediction of

disease risk, directing preventive strategies, beginning-of-life

decisions, patient and pathogen identification, and clinical

epidemiology. The applications of Medical Biotechnology extended

to almost all classes of animal and human diseases especially

infectious diseases, such as viral, bacterial, parasitic infectious

diseases. H5N1, H1N1, HBV and HCV are examples of viral

diseases. In the medical and pharmaceutical fields the students will

be well qualified in molecular diagnosis, molecular treatment & gene

therapy and stem cell research & technology.

The College of biotechnology aims to prepare qualified

undergraduate and post-graduate students capable of working in the

area of molecular diagnosis of diseases, molecular treatment & gene

therapy and stem cell research. The college also aims to prepare

specialized students capable of solving a number of chronic

problems like those relative to criminology and forensic medicine.

3.2. Pharmaceutical and industrial biotechnology:

In the pharmaceutical and industrial biotechnology fields, the student

will be well qualified in biopharmaceutical, pharmacogenomics and

personalized medicines. Here both undergraduate and pos-graduate

students study how to engineer the genetic makeup of economically

important microorganisms to render them more productive

(qualitatively and quantitatvely) in different industrial processes and

also in combating environmental pollution.

3.3. Agricultural biotechnology:

In agriculture, one of the modern biotechnology applications is

the genetic engineering of plants and animals for highly increased

quality and quantity of yields, animal cloning for the production of

genetically engineered strains for pharmaceutical or industrial

applications.

3

3.4. Enviromental Biotechnology:

Enviromental Biotechnology is being used to clean up

contaminated environments, rising demand for biofuels is expecting

to be good news biotechnology. For the environment biotechnology,

students will be capable to manipulate the microbial genomes to be

more efficient in industrial processing and environmental cleaning.

4. Biotechnology Education Program

A four-year biotechnology education program, offering a Bachelor

Degree in Biotechnology (B.Sc. Biotechnology), is specifically designed

to:

1.4.1. Develop student with a strong foundation and skills that seek

changing world of biotechnology.

1.4.2. Provide mix of basic, molecular genetics, genetic engineering,

medical, health, management, social, behavioural, and

environmental sciences as well as biotechnology practice to support

the role of the biotechnologists in multidisciplinary team.

1.4.3. Provides the understanding and practical skills behind the use of

genomics, proteomics and genetic engineering applications. These

applications include medicine and healthcare, agriculture and food

technology, industry and environment.

1.4.4. Provides students with practical training and final year research

project which link students directly to the fields and leading-edge

research.

1.4.5. Promote knowledge of commercial biotechnology as well as

communication, presentation and management skills.

1.4.6. Encourage lifelong-learning and evidence-based practices to meet the

global challenges and the new biotechnological development.

1.4.7. Develop and implement an efficient system for quality assurance and

accreditation.

Biotechnology program must be regularly evaluated and the content of

the curriculum must be revised and assessed to conform to the ARS and

ensure relevance to recent advances in biotechnology practices.

5. Career opportunities

Career opportunities exist not only locally and nationally, but also

internationally. The core competency of the graduates of the college of

4

Biotechnology at MUST enable them to work on local, national and

international fields of medical, pharmaceutical, industrial, agricultural and

environmental biotechnology.

Biotechnologists in Egypt work in companies of biotechnology

biopharmaceutical industry and tissue culture, followed by hospitals as well

as industrial, academic and research institution. Biotechnologists are also

involved in other professional practices including forensic medicine and

criminology services, biomedical and diagnostic laboratories, stem cell

research centers, veterinary medicines and military services. Furthermore, a

large number of Egyptian biotechnologists may work abroad, mainly in

Arab countries.

6. College Goals

These can be summarized as follows :

1- Have specialized biotechnology graduates with international

standards – for both under and post-graduate students – that are

scientifically and practically capable, and are able to face and adapt

to the increasing technological advancements.

2- Enhance collarboration with all university graduates such as

medicine, applied medical sciences, veterinary, pharmacy, dentistry

and agriculture. Also, with different research centers and drug

industries both locally and internationally to enhance their scientific

scope and experience, and to make available local and international

opportunities open for them for post–graduate studies and/or work.

3- Apply the new methods in teaching, examinations, research and

training through recruiting selected Egyptian professors who are

highly qualified and internationally renowned in different area's and

make good use of them for the benefit of applied scientific research

that aims for the welfare of humans.

4- Have scientifically excellent personnell (B.Sc., M.Sc. & Ph.D.) who

actively contribute to the revolution in science and technology

instead of importing them from abroad.

5- Making the college a center of training and continuous learning for

graduates and post-graduate students to fulfill the society’s need for

such candidates.

5

6- Promoting scientific research and linking it with technological

advancements for the benefit of the society and the enhancement of

the student's capabilities in this erea.
