The future prosperity of Thai agro-industries and pharmaceutical-industries will depend a great deal upon our strength in the science of biotechnology. The Department of Biotechnology at Faculty of Science, Mahidol University grew up as a unique multidisciplinary center to promote the application of a wide range of basic knowledge in biology, microbiology, chemistry, biochemistry, genetic engineering and bioprocess engineering. To date, many students have graduated and joined in the effort to develop our country as employees in government and private organizations involved in production, quality control, quality assurance, research and development of agro-industries and pharmaceutical- industries. In addition to providing quality graduates, the Department is one of the most important research centers which emphasizes recent applications of biotechnology in areas relevant to the development of Thailand.
