The Biotechnology Program at JCCC
Johnson County Community CollegeOverland Park, Kansas
JCCC Biotechnology Program
In early 2001 – the Stowers Institute for Medical Research would open their $200 million facility which would have an impact on the way the Kansas City metrothinks about bioscience research. And, they would need lab technicians.
JCCC Biotechnology Program
Three degree programs were developed at JCCC A Certificate – designed primarily for those who
already had a degree and were changing careers.
An Associate of Applied Science – designed for those who wanted a vocational degree only and wanted to get into the workforce quickly.
An Associate of Science – designed for those who wanted to get into the workforce, but would eventually go on for a bachelor’s degree.

JCCC Biotechnology Program
Future of the JCCC Biotechnology Program Recruit more students for every degree level. Solidify affiliations with other institutions, for
both educational and internship opportunities. Continue to find additional funding
opportunities for specialized equipment in the new facility.
Strengthen connections between local industry and develop their biomanufacturing needs, wants and desires.
