Biothecnology Engineering

The courses content was very extensive and you can learn from different biotechonlogy areas. Therefore, I liked it a lot because when I start university I wasnt sure about what to do or focus yet. However, I believe that in these fields the practice experience is completely necessary. Sadly, there were not too much research opportunities outside from plant biotechnology. That's why I didn't give it full score.
