At the undergraduate level, you can pursue the B.Tech. In Biosciences and Bioengineering. It is well-known for its M.Tech. In Biotechnology and Ph.D. in Biotechnology programs. You must pass the GATE entrance exam and receive a grade of 60% in B.Tech in order to pursue master's programs at IIT G. The placement package is around Rs. 9 LPA after pursuing a doctorate course in biotechnology from IIT-G. The faculty of this department is well-known and supportive. Many students who wanted to pursue research in biotechnology have preferred IIT-G. More than just placement, it is well-known for its biotechnology course curriculum, which meets the requirements of advanced research.
BT (Biotechnology) has negligible placement in their field. BT has very less scope in India, but it is considered as the most powerful branch in Western Countries. So, if you are taking BT as your field in IITG, then do it.
