Biological Sciences and Technology is the field of study which explores the principles of life phenomena and applies the results of scientific research to high-tech industries. It is a cutting-edge technology field which strives to promote the health and welfare of humankind, focusing on such diverse fields as medicine, health, pharmaceuticals, food, environment, agriculture, and energy. As a future-oriented industrial field, it promises to create numerous high-value-added industries in the knowledge-based society of the 21st Century.

The School of Biological Sciences and Technology is the first equipped division with high technology and research infrastructure governed by university administration. The School of Biological Sciences and Technology received approval as a newly appointed division from the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology in September 2003 after the preparatory period of five years. LG Management Assessment team has chosen the School as a special field at CNU.

The School of Biological Sciences and Technology is administering BK21 program supporting graduate students with 13 billion won every year, and it operated the NURi program supporting undergraduate students with over 8 billion won from 2005 to 2009. Currently 60% of enrolled students in the School of Biological Sciences and Technology receive scholarships. In addition, the department provides a variety of opportunities such as participating in international EXPOs, student exchange programs and overseas internships such as in University of Missouri, Columbia in U.S. Besides, the average research fund per professor is about 3 billion won from 2006 to 2009, which is the best at CNU and is in the top 10 nationwide.
