About Us
The mandate of the Regional Centre for Biotechnology (RCB) is to provide a platform for biotechnology education, training and research at the interface of multiple disciplines. The programmes of the Centre are designed to create opportunities for students to engage in multidisciplinary research where they learn biotech science while integrating engineering, medicine and natural sciences, to provide solutions for human and animal health, agriculture and environmental technologies. The vision is to produce human resource tailored to drive innovation in biotechnology, particularly in areas of new opportunities and also to fill talent gaps in deficient areas. The Centre is regarded as a “Category 2 Centre” in terms of the principles and guidelines for the establishment and functioning of UNESCO Institutes and Centres
