9 courses with the subject BTEC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BTEC 1010Engineering Life: Fundamentals of Biotechnology (LS)3
This lab-focused course introduces students to biotechnology : the use of materials from living organisms to improve our quality of life. With ancient roots in food fermentation and selective breeding, modern biotechnology produces high-value molecules; improved high-yield crops; and tests, drugs, and vaccines for diseases like COVID-19.
This course provides an overview of the medical device industry, including diversity of products, size and scope of the industry, current trends, and product life cycles from conception to market approval and distribution. This course also focuses on fundamental principles of measurement, performing measurements, data management, and analysis related to medical device manufacturing.
