Biotechnology

Hi,
Biotechnology course is all about using concepts of Biology for tweaking and modifying biological systems, cell structures, biological processes etc. So that they can be used in Engineering and Technology related applications to improve and enrich various sectors such as healthcare, food processing, agriculture, pharmaceuticals etc. And solve problems arising in these sectors. After a B.Tech degree, students can find jobs in pharmaceutical companies, research labs, biotech companies like Life Cell, Reliance Biotech, and many others and institutions in India. There are various industries that are engaged in developing and researching biological products and chemical industries. Besides, there is always demand for improvements in medicines and health products. Students in the research field tend to take up projects overseas, which is another lucrative option. Since India is still developing, it is highly recommended that you do your B.Tech in a reputed institution for good campus placements and job opportunities. If your university is not reputed, chances of any biotech company coming for placements will be zero. I would like to recommend you that you should pursue your B.Tech Biotech, from a well renowned, reputed nationally or state wise university, in which chances of any biotech or pharmaceutical company coming for placements sessions are higher as compare to the institute which is not that much well reputed and re renowned. I would like to recommend you some best universities for biotechnology course like:
Lovely Professional University
Delhi College of Engineering
VIT, Vellore
PSG Technology Coimbatore
National Institute of Engineering, Mysore etc. Few of these universities provides extensive learning programs and exposure to the students. They also provide worthy scholarships to its students depending upon the entrance test taken of the university or board result. These universities also offer various skill development programs, professional enhancement training and outstanding exposure to its students. I hope it helps.

Hello pranayana,
It depends on your interests and career plan. The options after B.Sc in Biotech would be to do your Masters, and then do your doctoral studies, if you wish to be in the area of Research or a job in academia. Some options are available for getting a job in the area of Production control or Quality Analyst in organizations such as Biocon, You should be really good with your basics on concepts such as Fermentation technology, Bio-remediation etc. However, it is worthwhile doing your Masters and your doctoral studies Ph.D and then trying for a job. What really matters is your interest and the career plan that you have planned for yourself, whilst understanding your skills and what you are good at.
