Biotechnology Placement

As per my analysis, due to recent advancement in the field of Bio-Technology, the Molecular Biology and genetic engineering domain promises to create a research oriented and placement oriented environment. I may not be able to clarify the offerings of other Universities, but being gratified alumni of Lovely Professional University, I managed to fetch some of the unique highlights of School of Bio-Technology & Bio-Sciences, LPU. It would be worthwhile to share with you to get the clear picture regarding the offerings of LPU in this domain. In LPU the Bio-Tech. Department is regularly works on student research projects with novel ideas of applied value. The highlights include:
Faculty: Highly experienced faculty, academically excellent in terms of their educational background, research and teaching. Fields of study: Genetic engineering, Molecular Biology cell Biology Molecular Diagnostics, Cloning (Reproductive and Therapeutic cloning)
Thrust Areas of research: Plant Functional Genomics, Molecular Marker studies, Taxonomy and Phylogenetic analysis
Unique features: Research projects in collaboration with national laboratories of India (NIPGR, New Delhi; CPRI, Shimla; NRCE, Hisar; IIWBR, Karnal; NIEBE, Kpurthala), Live projects for undergraduate students. Innovative Pedagogy: Academic tasks such Class Participation, Design Problem, Term Paper, Assignment, Live examples, AV-aids. Test and Quiz based on various competitive examinations. Case studies on Current research scenario. Future Career Prospects: Teaching in College, Junior/senior research fellow, Research posts in ICAR/CSIR labs, Stem cell therapeutics study, pathology labs, agriculture, quality control and assurance executive or manager in industries, Self Employed (Establishing small scale industries). Last Years placement Record of B.Tech. Bio-Tech (till date - in spite of Pandemic Situation) -
Offered : 9.55 LPA (CABINET SECRETARIAT, GOI)
Availed : 6 LPA (ZYLA HEALTH )
89% students get placed till date (Placement session is still LIVE)
Students are placed in the best brands like: Biocon Pvt Ltd. , Panacea Biotech, Shanta Biotech, Syngene, Piramal Healthcare, Wockhardt Limited, Reddys Laboratories, Bharat Biotech, Himalaya Spring, Nectar Life sciences Pvt Ltd. , Alchemist Pvt Ltd, Transsasia Pvt Ltd, Life cell International etc. Hope this helps !

I would say Lovely Professional University is best for pursuing B.Tech in Biotechnology. If you re looking for quality education, good placements, exposure, academics then LPU is right place, it has all. I am saying this because one of my known is pursuing same course from LPU and her experience is amazing. She told me Faculty members works hard tirelessly in enabling students with the acumen to apply the findings of Bio sciences in the fields of medicine, forensics, nutrition and dietetics for the benefit of the community. LPU School of Bioengineering and Biosciences is equipped with state-of-the-art Bioprocess Engineering and Bioscience labs and believes in imparting knowledge to students through a practical approach to achieve mastery in plant and animal physiology. Few points told by my known who did her studies from LPU that will help you to make your decision:
The course offers specializations in Dairy Technology, Fermentation Technology and Bioinformatics. The curriculum offers prime focus on fundamental and applied aspects of biotechnology. Students can get a foreign degree through international collaborations (2 year in India and 2 years abroad or 2 year in India and 1 year abroad)
In addition to core curricula, course offers subjects like communication and soft skills to enhance personality and employability. She said, specializations may be offered in Dairy Technology or Fermentation Technology or Molecular Biotechnology (subject to minimum number of students and feasibility)
The curriculum has been designed in such a way that it makes it easier for the students to prepare themselves for giant exams like CSIR NET ICMR, ICAR, and GATE. With an experienced faculty of 30+ in the department who arw ready to help the students round the clock, seven days a week, this institute is one of the best options for the young population to opt for biotechnology. The school encourages R & D activities for students to get the benefit. Many students from LPU have successfully collaborated with foreign universities and research institutions. The deptt also inculcates entrepreneurship opportunities to build job providers of the future. Companies like Panacea biotech, Dalmia healthcare, Root anaylsis, Cactus (and the list goes on) visit the campus every year. Also the scope is just not limited to work in the corporate sector in areas like marketing, quality controls or as research associative (for companies like Root anaylsis and cactus). .
