This project is instituting a Biotechnology Technician A.A.S. degree in response to state needs. More than 116 biotechnology firms are located in Utah with 57 moving in during the last eighteen months. These firms employ individuals focused on work in genetic engineering, bioinfomatics, molecular biology, and pharmaceutical development. Partners include the community college, local industries, universities in Utah, and 5 public school districts. Prior to this program, no two-year biotechnology programs were available in Utah or neighboring states. Industry representatives are involved in outlining skills competencies, delivering instruction and facilitating instructor professional development. Outcomes for this project include: (1) establishing reciprocal partnerships with local industry; (2) identifying, adapting and implementing secondary and college curriculum; (3) preparing college and secondary instructional staff; (4) supporting industry internships for faculty and students; (5) developing a state of the art instructional laboratory.

根据国家需要，该项目正在设立生物技术技术人员A.A.S.学位。超过116家生物技术公司位于犹他州，其中57家是在过去18个月里迁入的。这些公司雇用专注于基因工程、生物信息学、分子生物学和药物开发工作的个人。合作伙伴包括社区学院、当地工业、犹他州的大学和5个公立学区。在此计划之前，犹他州或邻近州没有提供为期两年的生物技术计划。行业代表参与概述技能能力，提供指导和促进教师的专业发展。该项目的成果包括：(1)与当地工业建立互惠的伙伴关系；(2)确定、调整和实施中学和大学课程；(3)培养大中专教学人员；(4)支持教师和学生进行行业实习；(5)建设先进的教学实验室。
