Published by Nebraska City News-Press

Southeast Community College is now offering a biotechnology program with certificate, diploma and associate degree options. Some classes can be taken as early as the upcoming summer term, while the major portion of the program begins this fall semester. Core classes will be at the Lincoln campus, while others are available in Beatrice and online. This is the only program of its kind in Nebraska.

“Biotechnology is a great career field for those who love learning about science and want to apply that knowledge to help create solutions to the challenges our society faces in important areas like healthcare, food and fuel,” said Tracy Niday, program co-director.
