What’s it like to be a Biotechnologist?
Biotechnologists study plants, animals and microorganisms. They use this
knowledge to develop uses for biological processes, which include creating
products for pharmaceutical, agricultural, diagnostic and environmental use,
and advancing industrial processes. Their work may incorporate the use of
small molecule technologies, nanotechnology, bioinformatics and synthetic
biology.
How much can I expect to earn?
Full-time employed Biotechnologist earn an average of $1315 per week. The
[average annual salary for this job is $68380 excluding super.]
Personal requirements
- enthusiasm and aptitude for science and research
- able to think logically and analytically
- able to carry out detailed and accurate work
- good communication skills
- able to solve problems and think creatively
- able to work independently or as part of a team
- able to grasp ethics of scientific research involving humans.
This job also involves:
Good vision for detail
These jobs require you to be able to see clearly to examine items close-up. It
covers jobs where poor vision e.g. tunnel vision, could make the work place
unsafe or the job difficult to undertake, e.g. draftsperson working with
detailed drawings; checkout operator reading dockets; work requiring good
hand-eye co-ordination for working with precision or semi-precision tools.
Reading or writing
These jobs require moderate or better reading and writing skills. Workers may
be expected to prepare, understand or act on written materials, such as
letters or reports. People may wish to avoid these jobs if their reading or
writing English skills are limited to a small range of words or phrases and
symbols. Jobs remaining may still require very basic reading or writing
skills.
This occupation offers jobs at the following skill levels:

Duties and tasks of a Biotechnologist
Biotechnologists may perform the following tasks:
- study the genetic, chemical, physical and structural composition of cells, tissues and organisms
- identify ways in which organisms and biological processes can be used to create new medicines, vaccines, foods, fuels and pharmaceutical products
- develop diagnostic tools to rapidly detect diseases
- use bacteria, enzymes and other organisms for a range of industrial uses, including agricultural production, food production and waste removal
- crossbreed animals and plants to encourage beneficial characteristics such as disease resistance, improved nutrition and accelerated environmental adaptation
- conduct research and experiments in the fields of genetic modification and biomolecular engineering, which involves altering the genetic make-up of plants and animals
- conduct human stem cell research with the aim of treating or preventing illnesses
- use biological engineering processes to create biological products for commercial use, such as biomaterials, chemicals or fuels.
