Founded in 1999, University School of Biotechnology (USBT) was established by Government of Delhi as one of twelve University Schools of Studies under the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University. The school has recently transferred to Dwarka Campus of the university.

But from the academic session 2004-2005 onwards, the MTech program has been delinked from the BTech program and the two program are being offered under dual degree program – BTech/MTech dual degree course and separate MTech program in different fields of biotechnology. As with other major institutes of India, the merit-based All India Common Entrance Test of GGSIPU entranced exam is used for admissions to USBT. Students that have taken courses in physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, or biotechnology during senior school are eligible for the entrance exam.

In the academic session of 2021-2022, seats were further increased from 45 to 53.
