About this course

The list of the world’s Top 100 universities is easily dominated by academic institutions located in the United States. The world’s best universities, including Ivy League institutions like Harvard, Yale, Columbia and Princeton in the US have produced some of the world’s most amazing advances in science, medicine, the arts and more and have trained many of the world’s greatest minds. Many US graduates, thanks to the knowledge and experiences gained in the finest university system in the world have gone on to be leaders of industry and nations. It is no surprise that over one third of the 1.2 million undergraduates studying outside their home countries are furthering their education in the US. With the INTI American University Program (AUP), you will be equipped with the skills, knowledge and exposure you need to maximise your potential and succeed in achieving your dreams.

Bioscience is a broad branch of the sciences concerned with living organisms, from microorganisms to plant life and animals. Within this science are a number of smaller branches focused on specific issues pertaining to living organisms.

Biotechnology is a field of applied biology which uses living organisms such as plants, animals and microorganisms to make or modify products or processes for specific use. Some of its more commonly known terms are genetic engineering, artificial selection and hybridization. Bioscience is a broad branch of the sciences concerned with living organisms, from microorganisms to plant life and animals. Within this science are a number of smaller branches focused on specific issues pertaining to living organisms. Biotechnology is widely used in medicine, engineering and agriculture fields to bring about improvements in food and medicines, treatments for diseases and even waste removal. There is also the emergence of “Industrial Biotechnology” with a growing market of products using biobased materials and production techniques in industrial applications.

Bioinformatics derives knowledge from computer analysis of biological data. It is highly interdisciplinary, using techniques and concepts from informatics, statistics, mathematics, chemistry, biochemistry, physics and linguistics. Thanks to massive yearly funding, America is the best place to obtain a degree in this study.

Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. Biochemists study the mechanisms of brain function, cellular multiplication and differentiation, communication within and between cells and organs, and the chemical bases of inheritance and disease.

Biomedical Science is the study of health and assessing and analysing methods of treating diseases. This major is suitable for students with a strong interest in biology and chemistry as well as an interest in the development of medical issues, either in research, health monitoring or treatment of a disease.

In recent years, the field of microbiology has had a major impact upon virtually all other scientific disciplines. Subjects of study include bacterial genetics, anatomy and reproduction. Instructions cover such topics as cell biology, microbial genetics and laboratory methods.

Molecular Biology is the basic science that seeks an understanding of life processes, the properties and functions of molecules that make up living cells, and how biomolecules operate and interact to drive the complex and diverse behaviours of living systems. The scope ranges from evolution and development to the regulation of gene expression.
