Sup’Biotech’s unique curriculum combines science and engineering coursework with management skills and industry-specific technical knowledge, preparing students for dynamic careers in research, management, and communication roles. Our graduates possess not only the expertise needed in STEM-based careers but the interpersonal and management skills to effectively deliver their message. The summer program Stem Cell and Genetic Engineering takes place on our campus on July 2022. Students come from around the world to study in English, go on our cultural trips and befriend other students from different cultures in an experience often described by participants as “unforgettable”. Our students also learn about the domestic and international biotechnology markets. Sup’Biotech’s professors come from diverse training and educational backgrounds, such as universities, research centers, and industry.
Sup’Biotech’s students are prepared for a wide range of responsibilities in various biotechnology and international corporations, working in the fields of health, cosmetics, the environment, pharmaceuticals, and agribusiness.
Stem Cell Engineering
This program is intended to give students a broad introduction to the exciting field of disease modeling using stem cells. Students will explore what makes stem cells unique, with a specific focus on their characterization and their function. They will extend their knowledge to include an introduction to the more specialized area of genome editing (CRISPR-Cas9). This course is an excellent way to dive deeply into disease modeling for students who are interested in the medical fields or stem cell research.
Cultural trips and site visits
The Summer Program is as much about having fun as it is about learning!
During the program, students make the most of their time in France by going on a boat tour down the Seine River, visiting a huge indoor waterpark, going to an action adventure park called Koézio, visiting the Palace of Versailles, and spending a day at Disneyland Paris, among other trips. They also visit biotech conferences, a brewery, and other trips designed to show the “application” side of biotechnology.
Language courses
Included in the program fees are language courses. “Survival French” will be given to students who need to brush up their French skills. Students who already speak French fluently will be given “Scientific English” classes that give a new level of refinement to their spoken and technical English. (2 ECTS credits for language.)
Students will receive a certificate granting them the equivalent of 6 ECTS
Languages: 2 ECTS
