Here are some applications of genetic engineering:
 

Medicine
Genetic engineering has been used to mass-produce many drugs, including insulin, human growth hormones, and vaccines.

It can also be used for:
Diagnosing genetic diseases
Personalizing medical treatments
Gene therapies
Vaccine development
Risk prediction

Animals (Genetic engineering can involve altering an animal's genetic material to modify certain characteristics or introduce new traits. For example, it can be used to create disease resistance or enhanced growth.)

Agriculture

Genetic engineering can have many benefits for agriculture, including:
Faster and more precise breeding
Higher crop yields
Development of more nutritious food
Decreased need for herbicides and pesticides 

Genetic engineering can also be used for:
Developing cancer therapies
Enhancing brewing yeasts
Creating genetically modified plants and livestock
