The course aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of the design and preparation of a biotechnological experiment, its execution, data analysis, and interpretation of the relationship between experimental conditions and the resulting data. Students will gain the skills necessary to independently carry out basic biotechnological techniques, conduct subsequent analyses, and competently design the entire process, including the final interpretation of findings

Students work individually or in groups in the laboratory under the supervision of an expert instructor, carrying out assigned tasks. For specific assignments, they collect original data, which they then independently process and present in the form of reports. At the end of the course, students present their results.
