Advancing Students into Molecular Biology

Biotechnology is a college preparatory program designed for students wanting to pursue a career in science. Career fields include medicine, research, pathology, genetics, biochemistry and forensics. This program meets the biology requirements for high school graduation and also offers advanced science credits. Contracts are available for honors or college prep credit. The course is approved for 8 college credits in Biology through Project Running Start. Students who successfully complete Biotechnology I may be eligible for Biotechnology II and III (internship) on a competitive basis, as well as, Health Sciences I, Animal & Plant Science I or another related SST program. A great deal of independence and a preparedness for college level work is necessary. Successful completion of Chemistry is recommended. Prerequisites: Freshman Science (B or better) and Algebra I (or taken concurrently).

NHSEE at SST

The SST Chapter of NHSEE gives SST Biotechnology students the chance to compete for college scholarships, awards, honors programs and other exciting prizes. Students will pursue specialized fields of science and engineering by working on individualized research projects, either as part of their core curriculum or through independent study. These projects broaden scientific awareness, and allow students to delve deeply into areas of their own special interests; giving them a chance to explore, to gather information, to arrive at conclusions and to present ideas in a competitive public forum.
