Welcome
Welcome to the Unitech Biotechnology Centre!
UBC
Establishment
The Papua New Guinea University of Technology (Unitech)
Biotechnology Centre was initiated at the Department of
Agriculture. It was formally established in 1997 by the
University Council as the Unitech Biotech Centre (UBC) to
encompass ‘modern biotechnology’ research, training and
its application in agriculture and also related disciplines
such as food science and technology, forestry,
environmental safety. UBC therefore remains as one of the
very few modern biotechnology research facilities in PNG.
BIODIVERSITY: BIOSAFETY: FOOD SECURITY
These are issues that impinge on modern biotechnology. Public awareness is the key to responsible adoption and accountability in the application of agricultural biotechnology to benefit and protect our rich biodiversity, ensure bio-safety and guarantee food security.
