At the Department of Biotechnology students are educated in life science fields of biotechnology, drug research and medicinal chemistry. Major effort in teaching is made in the interdisciplinarity of studies (the only academic institution in Croatia with accreditation in the interdisciplinary field) and in the research-oriented studies. Students are encouraged to participate in the scientific research projects of their professors form the beginning of their studies, while at the Master level we have recently started the new fully research-oriented study program in English language.

The Department of Biotechnology is at the moment the only academic institution in Croatia with accreditation in the interdisciplinary field and thus research conducted at the Department is interdisciplinary. At the Department we have scientist working in the different fields of life sciences (chemists, molecular biologists, biotechnologists, medical doctors with the expertise in broad subfields of the research, like organic chemistry, nanotechnology, immunology, microbiology, virology, neurobiology, genetics, etc), but also in other related scientific fields, like economy or law.

Department of Biotechnology is the only academic institution in Croatia accredited in interdisciplinary field of science, which means that all study programmes, including bachelors, are strongly interdisciplinarily oriented.
