Hi,

Yes, you can go for it.

B.Sc. (Hons.) Biochemistry is a three-year undergraduate programme with a specialisation in the inter-disciplinary domain of biochemistry. The minimum eligibility criterion which most of the institutes ask for is a score of at least 50% (relaxable for reserved category candidates) at 10+2 or equivalent level.

B.Sc (Hons.) Biochemistry course admission is based on entrance exam namely Common Entrance Test (CET) including the selection method as well as merit-based selection criterion that is the percentage of marks obtained at 10+2 or equivalent level by the candidate. Colleges and Institutes which provide admission through CET mechanism rely on the score of all-India level common entrance exams like, CG PAT, NET, etc. while some of them opt for a separate entrance exam of their own (like GB Pant University, GSAT, etc.).

The Cancer Biology and Cancer Stem Cells Program is focused on investigating the mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in the development and progression of cancer, including pathways critical for self-renewal of stem cells, in normal tissues and in cancer. The goals are to advance basic understanding of cancer pathogenesis and to facilitate the translation of basic Science discoveries into the clinical arena in order to improve the outcomes of patients with cancer.

Yes, you are eligible to pursue B.Ed after completing your M.Sc in Biochemistry. B.Ed stands for Bachelor of Education and it is a course that trains individuals to become teachers.

The subject options available for B.Ed vary depending on the university or institution you are applying to. While Biochemistry may not be offered as a specific subject option, you may be able to choose a related subject such as Biology, Chemistry, or Life Sciences.

I would recommend researching the B.Ed programs offered by various universities and institutions and looking into the specific subject options they offer. Additionally, it may be helpful to speak with a career counselor or academic advisor who can provide you with more information and guidance on the best subject option for you based on your career goals and interests. 

After earning a B.Sc. in Biochemistry and a B.Ed., you may be qualified to apply for a TGT (Trained Graduate Teacher) Science position. However, based on the particular requirements of the academic institution or state government performing the recruiting, the eligibility requirements for TGT posts can change. A bachelor's degree in science with concentrations in physics, chemistry, biology, or a combination of these areas is frequently required for TGT Science roles. You can be considered for TGT Science posts that include Biology as one of the courses because your B.Sc. in Biochemistry falls under the category of Life Sciences.

Additionally, earning a B.Ed degree qualifies you for teaching opportunities because many teaching positions in schools require it. Verify your qualification for a TGT Science post by: Examine the Official Notification: Keep an eye out for any official announcements or job postings published by the appropriate school or educational board. Detailed information regarding the eligibility requirements, topic prerequisites, and application process will be included in the announcement. Make sure that your B.Sc. in Biochemistry satisfies the specific subject requirements for the TGT Science post. You might need to confirm that your B.Sc programme included such subjects as well if the role calls for certain subjects like physics or chemistry. Verify Other Criteria and the Age Limit: Review any additional requirements, such as age restrictions, language competence requirements (if any), and other requirements. Reach out to the institution or the hiring authority: Contact the school or the organisation overseeing the hiring process if you have any questions or require additional information regarding your eligibility.
