The PhD program aims at training students to achieve high standard in bioengineering knowledge and skills from both the methodological and technological viewpoints. It is also designed to strengthen the students' personal creativity, especially through the practice of scientific research in several leading sectors.

Biomedical Sciences Master Program” with thesis in English, is planned to be carried out with contributions of academic staff of Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences of Altınbaş University. With this program, we will be able to train qualified researchers by integrating various biomedical sciences and related engineering branches into one program. On the research side, this program, by the joint use of basic and clinical sciences and engineering disciplines such as bioinformatics, signal and image processing, aims to develop effective diagnostic and therapeutic methods for metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity, neurodegenerative diseases

Biotechnology is the exploitation of living systems or molecules from them for commercial gain. Although the word 'biotechnology' is only a few decades old, humankind has been using biotechnology for millennia, for example in baking, brewing and sewage treatment. Modern biotechnologies rely on our increasing ability to manipulate organisms at the genetic level and include novel waste treatments and bioremediations, new pharmaceuticals, the exploitation of enzymes in 'green catalysis' and exciting new diagnostic techniques. In the 20th century our lives were transformed by information technology; the 21st century may see an equally great transformation, but this time led by biotechnology. This Masters degree aims to teach the fundamental molecular bioscience underpinning biotechnology along with examples of its current applications.

The Biotechnology Institute at Yeditepe University, the first interdisciplinary graduate school of biotechnology established in Turkey, is a research establishment focusing on health and agricultural bio-tech. Included in the future perspective of the Institute for the next 15 years are goals like the development of biosimilar drugs and the identification of novel biomarkers for complex diseases and molecular farming. The Institute was founded primarily to create a niche and a critical mass for biotechnology research in the country.

Biotechnology is a field of study that uses living organisms or cellular and bio-molecular processes to make new products, solve problems, or provide new methods of production. Scientific and technological advances have transformed biotechnology techniques, which have opened the door to a variety of applications in areas such as health care, the environment, forestry, and industrial processes. Lakehead is a comprehensive university with a reputation for innovative programs and cutting-edge research. The Ph.D. in Biotechnology at Lakehead is a research-based, interdisciplinary graduate program focused on the professional development of scientists in two areas of specialization: Medical biotechnology, Environmental biotechnology with a focus on toxicology, waste, and emissions.
