Biochemistry and Biotechnology
Explanation:
The "Biochimie Genie Biologique" area is teached both at "Lycee" and University level, but I would say that "Biochemistry and Biotechnology" is more accurate than "Bioingeneering", if you are talking about Baccalaureate and the corresponding DTU/BTS diplomas (technician, pre-U level):

http://www.onisep.fr/Ressources/Univers-Formation/Formations...

There is no "bioengineering" at this level, but Biotechnology sure is.

Even at University level they speak specifically about Biotechnoloy:

And I think this 'nails' it (in combination with your text: Sciences et technologies de laboratoire):

neutral  Nikki Scott-Despaigne: DUT and BTS levels are above baccalauréat-level; they are part of the higher education system, so uni euivalent (if the bac level here is France). If the source is Swiss, then it may be different.
