B.Sc

Hi,
B.Tech Food technology course deals with food engineering and food sciences. It provides in depth knowledge of the fields like food processing, food packaging, nutrition, storage etc. Any person who pursues this course gets the edge of being known as food scientist or food technocrat. The course has broad career prospects and provides with diversity of job profiles such as Food Scientist, Process Manager, Food Sales Representative etc. The top recruiters in the field of food technology include Department of Food and Public Distribution, FCI, Cadbury, Venkys, Hatsun etc. While B.Sc-Agri is a 4-year undergraduate degree involves the study of agriculture sciences and use of modern scientific equipment and techniques in agriculture, land surveying, soil Science, water resource management, animal, and poultry management, basics of biotechnology etc. The objective of the course is to use these concepts to train students to improve agricultural productivity. B.Sc. Agriculture Syllabus includes subjects such as Agronomy, Plant Biochemistry, Water Management Engineering, Study of Pests and Crops, amongst many others. The syllabus is designed to provide an overall knowledge of agriculture and all its related disciplines. B.Sc. Agriculture graduates can find jobs in both public and private sectors. The Gazetted post of Government of India as Agricultural Officer is one of the most prestigious jobs, In public sector after B.Sc. Agriculture. Agriculture officer, Assistant Plantation Manager, Agricultural Research Scientist, Agriculture Development Officers, Agriculture Technician, Agriculturists, Business Development Executive, Marketing Executive etc. Are some of the job profiles associated with the course. Hence, in my opinion, B.Sc-Agri can be the better option.
