SUP’BIOTECH is an engineering school located in Paris and specialized in Biotechnology.
It is part of the technological cluster of IONIS Institute of Technology, the first French private higher education group. This cluster also includes EPITA and EPITECH, specialized in computer science and information technology, and IPSA, specialized in aeronautics technology.
SUP’BIOTECH’s education is a multidisciplinary balance between scientific and engineering qualifications (theoretical lessons, laboratory experiences and projects), management skills, industrial know-how as well as knowledge of the international biotechnology market. Professors come from universities, research centers and private companies.
English is practiced throughout the program with classes taught entirely in English during the Expertise cycle. Sup’Biotech’s students are therefore prepared for a wide range of responsibilities in various biotechnological and international companies working in the field of health, cosmetology, environment and food.
Sup’Biotech’s five-year program includes two study cycles that correspond to the new European standards. The first cycle, which lasts three years, leads to a Bachelor degree from Sup’Biotech. Upon completion of the subsequent two-year cycle, students are awarded the Biotechnology Expert diploma. During the Expertise cycle, lectures are mostly given in English and optional courses are proposed: Research and Development, Production or Marketing and Sales.
I am a researcher with the CNRS and run a lab at Université Paris VI. I have had the pleasure to host several Sup'Biotech students in my group and the interactions have been entirely positive. I find the students are motivated, have disciplined work habits, and have had a sound preparation in fundamental laboratory principles from the school so that they are easy to teach and learn rapidly on the job. They are well organized and keep good laboratory notebooks, furthermore they have a good knowledge of English, which is important in my international team. Currently, 3d year students from Sup'Biotech are running my entire baculovirus protein production operation and thereby providing valuable technical support to my group. I will certainly continue to take your students in the future, thank you Sup'Biotech !

Amelie was doing an internship of 4 months in our institute in the department of protein biochemistry. Her work was focused on the study of mammalian protein glycosylation. The work covered a wide range of activities, from the transfection, expression and purification of various proteins in different cell lines up to the analysis and partial characterization of the glycosylation patterns. Amelie was very enthusiastic and showed a great interest and commitment to her work. She suggested and performed additional experiments to expand her study. The results she produced during her brief internship will be the basis for a publication we are now working on, where Amelie of course will be a co-author. In addition to her excellent work, she has a very pleasant personality and it was a real pleasure to work with her.
