The major difference between an MSc in Chemistry and an MSc in Biochemistry is their field of study. Chemistry focuses on Organic, Inorganic, Physical, and Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry specializes in Biological Molecules and processes. With an MSc in Chemistry, you can expect careers in industries such as pharmaceuticals, materials science, environmental science, and academia. Meanwhile, with an MSc in Biochemistry, you can go into research, Biomedical Sciences, Biotechnology, and Healthcare.

Some top job profiles for MSc Chemistry in India are Chemist, Research Associate, Toxicologist, Lab Technician, Professor, Chemical Engineer, etc. The average salary of a Chemist in India is INR 3 LPA.
