Biotechnology

Hi Dikshitha,
You can surely opt for this branch. Just make sure that you get interest in studying engineering. Because, as you want to do UPSC ultimately, you might ignore engineering studies. Engineering will certainly help you in one or the other way when you'll become an IAS officer.
All the Best!

Hi Akshaya,
You can either opt for a job or higher studies. Higher studies would be a good choice. One of my friends in B.Tech chemical engineering is now going for Masters in biotechnology in the US. Finally, you should try what you feel good, I guess.
All the best.

Amity University is a great choice. Infrastructure is amazing
and the faculty members are very supportive and hard working.
Facilities like personal cabins at library, labs, etc., are there. Strict security for the students. Placements are good over here. Amity is a good option.

Hi,
Admission for M.Sc Biotechnology in IIT is through counselling based on the rank obtained in Joint Admission Test (JAM). Please elaborate your questions for better understanding. Regards.

Hi, CUCET and AUCET like other entrance exams are also conducted by various universities for admission into M.Sc. Don't bother about that, just you keep your mind on your present academics then you will perform well in your exam easily.
