Biotechnology is usedin agriculture, food production, and medicine. biotechnology has expanded to include new and diverse sciencessuch as genomics, recombinant genetechniques, applied immunology, and development of pharmaceuticaltherapies and diagnostic tests.

It teaches about the procedures for modifying living organisms , going back to domesticationof animals, cultivation of the plants, and improvements to these through breeding processes involving artificial selectionand hybridization. In todays time it alsoincludes genetic engineering,celland tissue culturetechnologies.

Now lets come to the Courses one can study in this field.
