So everybody knows biology. Biology: study of life.
People know technology because that's, you know,
applying scientific knowledge for practical purposes.
So biotech is a combination of the two.
It's biology plus technology.
So you use living things and make products out of it,
which could benefit the mankind.
So biotech is pretty much everywhere you look,
but it's in all your medicine, it's in your foods and innovating new products
and making it
easier for people to get medical treatment like personalized medicine.
We're getting to the point
where technology is innovating so rapidly that hopefully it will be cost effective.
So by working in the biotech industry, you know, you're actually looking
for cures and solutions where you can make those people's lives better.
I do want to see myself in that position, being able to
think of solutions that can solve the problems.
Well, the program itself covers a lot of different
a lot of different aspects of the biotechnology world.
Those skills are universal in the science industry.
Like, no matter where you go to work, you're going to use those skills.
So they get the relevant training, right?
They don't have to wait till they graduate
and then apply for a job, get it, and then get trained
so they can do it while they're studying.
And then they can relate to everything that they're learning in class
to what they're doing at work. So that makes it more easy
for them to understand and apply their knowledge better.
So biotech is highly prevalent in our region.
Lots of companies are coming in. They're investing in Frederick.
So we really need to have students to generate the future
workforce and build a pipeline of students that they can feed into the industry.
Biotech is fun.
It's exciting. It's challenging.
It's constantly changing.
So if you want something exciting
and as a career to be a part of the biotech revolution, do something
that'll make a change in the society and impact everyone's life.
