Bachelor in Biotechnology

The tuition fee is 3,050 EUR per semester.

This bachelor's programme in medical biotechnology is delivered in English at the Medical University of Silesia, through the School of Pharmacy with the Division of Laboratory Medicine in Sosnowiec, Katowice, Poland. It runs for six semesters as a first-degree, undergraduate course. The same school also offers medical biotechnology as a second-degree, graduate programme lasting four semesters, and a pharmacy programme lasting 5.5 years across eleven semesters, so students can continue toward a master's-level qualification at the same institution after finishing this degree. Medical biotechnology combines biology, chemistry, and laboratory science with an emphasis on health-related applications, covering areas such as diagnostics, pharmaceutical development, and laboratory medicine. Students build a foundation in laboratory techniques and biomedical science that supports later specialization in clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical research, or biotechnology-based product development. For admission enquiries specific to medical biotechnology, the School of Pharmacy with the Division of Laboratory Medicine in Sosnowiec directs candidates to its Dean's Office and to a named admissions contact for the medical biotechnology track. Candidates from a number of countries, including Nigeria and other African countries as well as Iran, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Libya, and Jordan, are asked to route their applications through a specified admissions partner rather than applying directly. Graduates of medical biotechnology programmes generally go on to work in clinical and research laboratories, diagnostic companies, and the pharmaceutical industry, or continue into graduate-level biotechnology or related health science studies.
