There are a lot of career opportunities in the field of Human genetics and molecular Biology. The job opportunity for a genetics degree holder is continuing to expand. The genetic employees are not sufficient now, that's why the demand for genetics continues to increase. Since Molecular Biology is a rare field of Science, hence competition is expected to be less as compared to other fields of basic and applied sciences. However, the career is challenging and rewarding. Those who have sufficient interests and relevant academic qualifications can only make a career in Molecular Biology. The fee varies from university to university. If you are looking for the best university for this course then being LPU alumni I would suggest LPU.
