Students of science will sharpen their knowledge and skills in the areas of biotechnology, specifically, in areas such as molecular/cellular biology, and in particular in the understanding of biological concepts such as cloning, genetic engineering, Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), stem cells, embryonic stems cells, and so on.
