Fermentation technology
The fermentation technology is a broad field and as a learning front we are very much confined to the use of microorganisms and enzymes for production of compounds that find application in the energy, chemical, material, pharmaceutical and the food sector.
In fact, fermentation technology has evolved in the marketplace and the fermentation technology products have been complimenting pharmaceutical & bio-manufacturing companies for the production of many products. An aspirant learning on fermentation technology are in much demand and a experienced fermentation technologist are very much required by companies who undertake fermentation technologies.
Course Goal
The course focuses upon:
- The aspirants would extensively master various fermentation methodologies
- The methodologies could involve research & development in the fermentation technology.
