Applied Biology is the branch of biology that focuses on using biological knowledge and techniques to solve real-world problems in areas like health, agriculture, industry, and the environment.
A typical Applied Biology course covers:
Core biological principles – cell biology, genetics, microbiology, physiology, and ecology.
Applied topics – biotechnology, bioinformatics, environmental management, agriculture, and medical biology.
Laboratory and fieldwork – hands-on experiments, data collection, and analysis.
Research and innovation – applying biological methods to develop new technologies or improve existing systems (e.g., vaccines, crop yields, or waste treatment).
