Why is it important to pursue a higher education?

The need for such specialists is dictated by the needs of the large-scale development of biomedicine based on the achievements of genetics; the creation of both public and private biomedical centers, as well as agricultural enterprises; the widespread introduction of methods of molecular genetic analysis into the practical activities of medical institutions and agriculture.
Practice:
  • Structural divisions of the Southern Federal University;
  • Scientific research institutions;
  • Production facilities (clinical diagnostic centers, genetic laboratories, laboratories of food and biotechnological industries, medical and genetic research centers, etc.)
