BIOTECNOLOGICAL INSTRUMENTATION IN ELECTRICITY MECHANICS TECHICIAN

The program develops students’ knowledge and skills to perform as instrumentalists in the biotechnology industry. The technician will be trained in electricity, electronics, mechanics, calibration, semiconductor, transistors, thyristors, magnetism, sensors, atomization (PLC), preventive maintenance, problem identification, corrective actions, pneumatic, hydraulic, and troubleshooting. It covers the principal instruments of the manufacture and laboratories of biotechnology industries such as bioreactors, centrifuges, and other equipment related for cell growth, fermentation, protein production, purification, and
others. In addition, the students will be offered the fundamental foundation of biology, chemistry, mathematics, and topics of good manufacturing practices, validations and the regulations that apply to industry. The program provides the acknowledgment to request the licences in Electronic Technician (Instrumentation) and/or Expert Electrician (“perito”).
