Placements are low in biotechnology, but it has good learning opportunities.
Placements: Placements and salary packages and are low for biotechnology, and there is a little chance for placements. There would be practice school offered in 2nd year where chances of placements are more, and you get available for industry. Anyhow course work and technical learning are good.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure wise BITS is providing facilitated labs where students can learn and do their research work. In life sciences, it is well established for research work. The latest technology and conditions of the laboratory are well maintained. Wi-Fi available is also good.
Faculty: Faculty members are good with mostly PhD degree having collaboration with various government institutions and foreign institutions for their research work. They teach an in-depth subject, and teaching quality is also good. The course curriculum is mostly related and par with industry needs.
Other: Biotechnology is mostly a research area. Students should have patience and interest in the subject. Biotechnology is not a good option to work in the core field.
