Presentation

General information about the degree

This course prepares you to work in factories that make medicines, cosmetics and biotechnology products. You will learn how to organise production, how to start up and shut down equipment, and how to make sure every product meets the quality the law requires. When you finish, you will be able to carry out manufacturing and packaging tasks safely and responsibly.

You will study quality control, basic operations in the pharmaceutical industry, principles of biotechnology and production techniques, as well as safety and regulation. Part of the training takes place in companies, in a dual format. Afterwards you could work as a control technician, manufacturing supervisor, warehouse coordinator or production area supervisor, or in biotechnology as a team leader in a clean room or bioreactor area.

This may suit you if you enjoy lab work and machines, you are tidy, and you care about following the rules exactly. If you want to keep studying later, you can take a university degree in chemistry, pharmacy or biology, or a specialisation course in cell cultures.
