Biotechnology

These are the subjects for B.Sc Biotechnology. Hope this list will help you to prepare well before getting admission in this career.
The course B.Sc Biotech broadly lays emphasis on the following key areas:
Biochemistry
Biophysics
Cell Biology
Microbiology
Genetics
Biomathematics & Biostatistics
Biodiversity
Chemistry
Transcriptomics & Metabolomics
Bioprocess Engineering & Technology
Molecular Biology
Bioenergetics & Biomembranes
Molecular Genetics & Cytigenetics
Recombinant DNA Technology
Animal & Plant Physiology
Nanobiotechnology
Genomics & Proteomics
The department has well established laboratories with instruments such as Thermalcycler, ELISA reader, Gel Documentation, Co2 Incubator, Fermentor, Millipore Unit, UV Vis and Spectrophotometer.This course has a great scope, and demanding too. If you are interested in this course, then do it by heart and hard work you will definitely going to get success.

Before choosing any of the streams, first of all, know about your interest and passion. When it comes to B.Sc in any subject, it's of no importance without doing M.Sc and Ph.D. in that particular subject in today's scenario. Being a biotechnology student, I can explain to you in the easiest way.
B.Sc in Biotechnology: It's completely a research-oriented field and it has various application in industries, pharma sector, research labs, etc. But to be frank, there is no scope in doing B.Sc in Biotechnology. I know its bitter to hear but that's the reality of the private sector. This field is completely saturated and today its completely lacking funds for research and development hence You have to pursue Ph.D. in biotechnology in order to get a good amount of salary and satisfactory life. It will minimum take 9 years 3 years B.Sc. 2 years M.Sc. And 5 years Ph.D. to get a good salary package of 6-7 Lacs per annum whereas when u start doing the job after M.Sc. Your starting package is approximately 2.5-3.5 max to max per annum. Whereas when we talk about B.Sc in Chemistry, it's a field which is facing direct competition from B.Pharm, M.Pharm and B.Tech Chemical engineering. Hence the scenario would be same in both the cases whether you take Chemistry or Biotechnology for getting good pay scale u need to do Ph.D. Although, Biotechnology is a better field than chemistry because biotech has wider scopes in industries hospitals as well as in academics and research whereas chemistry is limited to academics only so if u have to choose between B.Sc Biotechnology or B.Sc. Chemistry than it would be better to go for B.Sc. Biotechnology. But if u have an option and u are interested in chemistry then you better go for B.Pharm, it has better scopes and opportunity. Choose wisely and think before you choose your career.
