Course Starts August 26, 2024This program was created in response to the lack of diversity in STEM Fields and with the awareness that the biotechnology/life science industry is struggling to find highly skilled technicians to support it's rapid growth.
We envision our graduates using their training, skills, and passion to solve the world's problems through science and to become agents of change who support diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in the life science workforce.
Through an equity centered approach, we strive to cultivate our student's interests in science and to build their confidence by acknowledging and celebrating their strengths while training them to become skilled laboratory technicians.
Coming Fall 2024! Continue your training in biotechnology by earning a bachelor’s degree in biomanufacturing at one of three California Community Colleges: Solano, MiraCosta, Moorpark, and LA Mission College.
You can apply to the Biotechnology Program at any time during the year. Make sure to schedule an appointment with an academic counselor to draft an educational plan so that you complete the correct general requirements.
