Rhodes University Biotechnology Innovation Centre Department – See Details Below:
About RUBICEstablished in 2014, the Rhodes University Biotechnology Innovation Centre is the brand new academic home of the discipline of Biotechnology, providing a trans-disciplinary research and learning environment in the field. Core discipline staff are supported by Research and Professional Associates representing academia, industry and the private sector. In addition to teaching and research, the Biotechnology Innovation Centre is engaged in biotechnology innovation and the public engagement and communication of the field.??
Vision and MissionThe vision of the BIC is to create an enabling environment for the translation of Biotechnology related research into products or processes with socio-economic value (Innovate) and to serve as the academic home for the discipline of Biotechnology through targeted programmes in postgraduate and undergraduate teaching and research (Educate) and in science communication (Communicate).
Degree programmes in Biotechnology are offered at the Honours, Masters and PhD levels
Focus
Biotechnology is an applied field of study, the outcome of the integration of the disciplines of biology, chemistry and engineering. Its applications within human and environmental health combined with the development and improvement of new products and processes holds direct benefits for socioeconomic development. The emergence of biotechnology as a key global player in innovation and technology transfer means that this field also incorporates the social sciences, business, economic and legal fields.
Responding to the challenges of a trans-disciplinary field, Rhodes University took a strategic decision in 2013 to situate the discipline of Biotechnology in this new academic home in the form of the Rhodes University Biotechnology Innovation Centre. While staying true to the core principles of excellence in research and teaching, the new academic home is better enabled to respond to the needs of a diversified field, of its graduates and the country through innovation, technology transfer and public engagement. In the longer term, RUBIC may yet be a catalyst for employment opportunity, and economic prosperity.
History
Rhodes University is home to the oldest biotechnology academic programme in South Africa. Launched twenty three years ago, it was later formally established as a separate discipline within the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Biotechnology (BMB department). Biotechnology research in this department spanned areas of Bioenergy and Biomedical Biotechnology.
Eleven years ago, the establishment of the Environmental Biotechnology Research Unit (now Institute for Environmental Biotechnology) paved the way for novel bioprocesses in industrial and environmental biotechnology, contributing in areas of waste treatment, and the recycle and beneficiation of waste materials. Some 25 novel environmental bioprocess patents were registered during this period.
In 2009, the Rhodes University School of Biotechnology was formed to consolidate the wealth of Biotechnology research in the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Biotechnology, at EBRU and local industry. Led by a steering committee spanning industry and academia, the establishment of a new academic home for Biotechnology is a key outcome of the School.
Goals of the RUBIC
- Train postgraduates at the Honours, Masters and PhD levels in a trans-disciplinary research, environment, better-skilled to unlock their potential as Biotechnologists
- Create an enabling environment for technology transfer to emerge from higher education by situating Innovation and Entrepreneurship into the research and teaching programmes
