Biotechnology students entering the workforce often struggle in their application of textbook knowledge to build the solutions that we see in science and health fields today. Some students may be naive to what a job in the biotechnology industry can encompass. Students should graduate having a firm grasp of the prospects of their field and have the confidence to begin contributing to the growth of the industry. For this, it is necessary for students to be able to start practising applications in their coursework before they graduate. A competition titled “Biotech BioBrawl” was incorporated in the University of Central Florida's Methods in Biotechnology (MCB4721C/MCB5722C) course agenda during the semester of Fall 2021. This competition challenged students to harness innovation and applied science in a group setting that led to the development and pitch of an original idea to a panel of judges with various biotechnology industry experiences.

生物技术方法 Biotech BioBrawl：基于竞争的生物技术学习方法

进入职场的生物技术学生常常难以应用课本知识来构建我们当今在科学和健康领域看到的解决方案。有些学生可能对生物技术行业的工作所涵盖的内容还很天真。学生毕业时应该牢牢掌握其领域的前景，并有信心开始为行业的发展做出贡献。为此，学生有必要在毕业前开始在课程作业中练习应用。 2021 年秋季学期，中佛罗里达大学生物技术方法 (MCB4721C/MCB5722C) 课程议程中纳入了一项名为“生物技术 BioBrawl”的竞赛。这项竞赛要求学生在小组环境中利用创新和应用科学，从而促成了向具有各种生物技术行业经验的评审团开发和推销原创想法。
