Science

It totally depends on your interest, just choose according to your choice. But there are vast employment opportunities in biotechnology field as they can be absorbed in a number of research institutions, Center for Cellular and Molecular Biology, National Botanical Institute Agricultural Research Institute, National Institute of Immunology, etc. Can work as Scientists, research officers, research associates, chemical examiners. Etc. Institute of Bio-resources and Sustainable Development and Panacea Biotech are the major research institutes which offer research jobs for M.Sc. Degree holders in Microbiology. Microbiology is about to blow up with the human microbiome project. There will be an expansion of micro jobs in health, environmental (farming, bio-remediation, ocean health), as well as the current health and food possibilities (pathogens, bio-fuels, virology, food testing, pro-biotics, fermenting, brewing). So I think there is also a growth potential there. Most of the microbiology ends up being like gardening - you have to know how stuff grows, and there are lots of tests to find out what you are growing. In practice, working in a micro lab can be pretty repetitive. All the fields are good and have a bright future, but hunt for your interest subject and in which field you want to grow.
