Faculty of Biotechnology (FBT) was established in 2008 with initial-foundation from Department of Biotechnology - Faculty of Agronomy and human resources from research groups in Agronomy, Veterinary Medicine, Animal Husbandry, Fisheries and Environmental Sciences. FBT offers both the undergraduate and postgraduate educational programs.
Our programs provide a foundation of the theory and practical learning in different aspects of agricultural biotechnology. Our research focusses on basic and applied study such as genetic improvement of crops and livestock; development of biological products; environmental protection; human health; and improvements the value of processed foods, veterinary medicine, fisheries, biosafety, and basic biological research (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics).
Vision
By 2030, the FBT will be the center of excellence in training high-quality human resources and scientific research, making outstanding contributions to the development of agriculture and the international integration of Vietnam.
Mission
