Students at the Gippsland campus must study the Industrial strand of Biotechnology.

The industrial strand offered at Gippsland incorporates food microbiology, environmental microbiology and chemistry, providing opportunities for local employment in the dairy and water and waste industries; links with regional industries enable final-year students to participate in directed biotechnological research in an applied research project.

Students at the Sunway campus must study the Generic strand of Biotechnology

The generic strand offered at the Sunway campus requires students to acquire skills and applications from a broader area of biotechnology. Emphasis will be given to molecular biology, genetics, genomics as well as plant biotechnology which are relevant to the rapidly emerging biotechnology industries in Malaysia.
