Ever marvel how new drugs and vaccines are revealed, why there is improved and accelerated drug testing, better diagnostic capabilities, and the availability of foods which enhance nutritional values. This evolution has extremely improved healthcare and is viewed by many scientists as only a beginning to the great era of medical biotechnology. Scientist consider that the availability of "targeted therapies" for diseases and individuals should dramatically improve drug safety and efficacy, and the growth of predictive technologies may lead to a new era in disease prevention, particularly in some of the world's rapidly developing economies. This sound justification holds great potential and promise in the field of medical biotechnology.

The IMU Medical Biotechnology Programme has included key features to prepare the modern Medical Biotechnologist for challenges beyond tomorrow. These features offer an considerable advantage to students as there is significant emphasis on concepts and theories important for creating a constant platform to develop technical know-how and skills.The technical skill of the student begins with learning in a controlled laboratory environment. As the student progresses they will be qualified to think and solve analytically through modules that were specially designed for them to make independent decisions.

Furthermore, IMU has a numerous of knowledge in the field of medical and pharmaceutical sciences. The faculty members are already engaged in active research work, providing a suitable environment for the medical biotechnology student to experience the thinking, planning, application and discussion related to research.
