Teaching and research
editCurriculum
editBachelor in biotechnology
editStudents begin with the first cycle of three years including a classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles of two years and one year of professionalization with a 3-month internship. During the third year, a trip abroad in a partner university education is compulsory.[15]
Master in biotechnology
editAfter the first cycle, students begin the second two-year cycle which includes the fourth and fifth year with the choice of a specialization: research / development / production processes or marketing / sales engineer. Students also make the choice of an option: health / medicine, environment, cosmetics, food industry or bioinformatics. During this cycle, two internships (4 and 6 months) are compulsory. SupBiotech signed in January 2011 a partnership with the Cancer Institut Gustave Roussy.[16] The majority[17] of the courses in this cycle are given in English.
In the final year, students who wish can prepare in parallel an MBA at the Institut supérieur de gestion, a Master at IONIS STM,[18] a Master in basic research at several Universities, including the University of Évry Val d'Essonne or at the École pratique des hautes études,[19] or also a double degree with a partnership university abroad. In addition, the school has a partnership with the Ecole Centrale Paris allowing two fifth-year students to follow in parallel a Mastère Spécialisé in biomedical engineering data.[18]
International partners
editSupBiotech has partnerships with universities abroad,[20] including : Tunisia Private University, University of California at San Diego, Université de Montréal, Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education,[21] University of Essex, University of Sussex, Heriot-Watt University in United Kingdom.[21]
Research activities
editSupBiotech has four active research teams, in Bioinformatics (Bio Information Research Laboratory), Cellular Engineering (CellTechs), Agro-environmental Engineering and Sociology.[22]
In May 2012, the university has inaugurated a new bio-production laboratory.[23][24] It has also a partnership with Pasteur Institute.[25][26][27]
Notable alumni
