No, not at all. Biology is not required for admission in Pharmaceutical Chemical Engineering or any Engineering. You just need to have Maths, Physics and Chemistry as the major subjects in 12th standard. So, you don't need biology in class 12th to secure admission to Pharmaceutical Chemical Engineering at ICT Bombay.

Hi,
Both of the degrees offer career opportunities that candidates can grab and pursue their career goals. But there are some differences between them which is given in the table below:
| Feature | Biochemical Engineering | Chemical Engineering |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Applying biological principles to chemical and industrial processes | Designing and optimizing chemical and physical processes |
| Core disciplines | Biochemistry, Microbiology, Chemical Engineering, Thermodynamics | Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics |
| Main applications | Production of drugs, food, biofuels, bioremediation | Production of chemicals, fuels, materials, polymers, environmental engineering |
| Work environment | Chemical plants, food processing facilities, biotechnology companies | Chemical plants, refineries, energy companies, environmental consulting firms |
| Job titles | Fermentation Engineer, Bioprocess Engineer, Food Product Developer | Chemical Engineer, Process Engineer, Materials Engineer, Environmental Engineer |
| Skill emphasis | Process design, mass transfer, fermentation, biocatalysis | Mass transfer, thermodynamics, reactor design, equipment operation |
Hope this helps !
