Genetic Engineering

Yes, you may get admission in Indian Institute of Science Bangalore for Genetic Engineering. The Division of Biological Sciences at the Institute is engaged in front line research at the frontiers of modern biology.
It encompasses three major departments, four smaller Centres and three facilities and has on its rolls more than fifty faculty members and about 300 research scholars and post doctoral fellows.
Genetic Engineering is concerned with deliberate manipulation of the genetic material (DNA) of a living organism by artificial methods.
Eligibility:
Candidates should be 10+2 pass in science stream from recognized board examination.
Specializations
Classical genetics
Behavioral genetics
Clinical genetics
Molecular genetics
Population, quantitative and ecological genetics
Genomics
Genetic algorithms

Both fields have comparable scope. You should pursue a course which you feel comfortable doing. Consult with your peers and try to gather more information regarding course syllabus and subjects which will be studied in either course. This should help you gauge whether you will be interested in the course. Pursue a course where your interests lie.
Genetic Engineering is also referred as genetic modification. It is a process of manually adding new DNA to a living organism through artificial methods.
Genetic Engineering is a method of physically removing a gene from one organism and inserting it to another and giving it the ability to express the qualities given by that gene. The techniques of genetic engineering have been applied in various fields such as research, agriculture, industrial biotechnology and medicine. Genetic engineering focuses on biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, evolutionary biology and medical genetics.
BE/B.Tech in biomedical engineering is all about the amalgamation of topics such as- Engineering, Technology and Biology. It is aimed at using concepts of Engineering, Technology and Biology to solve problems and in aiding research work, improve and enrich healthcare sector, medicines, diagnostic processes, rehabilitation, hospital equipment/tools and surgical processes.

Bharath University is a deemed and accredited A grade university by NAAC.
The university has an old establishment, well-arranged curriculum and vibrant atmosphere. The effortless work is therefore visible in their placement scenario. Genetic engineering is not so widely accepted stream in india in terms of its application thus making it hard for the students to find a good job after graduation. Though the university serves with ample opportunities to enter in the corporate world, to go for higher studies or the most followed research scenario.
The average placement stats are around 4 LPA where the highest package in the recent recruitment session is around 8 LPA.
One can get into the university by taking its own exam and clearing it with the required marks.
Thank you.
Hope it helped.
