Scope of Biotechnology for B.Tech students:
Any student who is contemplating on pursuing a career in Biotechnology must be aware that this field is still developing in India. Therefore, the number of job openings and pay packages are both very low when compared with IT and CS fields.
After a B.Tech degree, students can find jobs in pharmaceutical companies, research labs and institutions in India. However, most Indian students tend to go abroad to pursue their Masters or doctorate studies in Biotechnology and allied fields. Talking about on-campus placements, since the number of job openings is very less in Biotechnology, the number of companies coming for placements will be very less. Also, core companies only hire students from universities such as IITs, NITs etc. If your university is not reputed nationally or state wise, chances of any biotech or pharmaceutical company coming for placements sessions will be close to nil.
Since this field is highly research oriented, vast and diverse, it is highly recommended that students pursue their graduate studies in Biotechnology, Biomedical sciences, Biological sciences, Bioprocess Engineering etc. For more details on B.Tech course in Biotechnology, please read this article.
Scope of Biotechnology for B.Sc students:
If you are a B.Sc student in biotechnology or any other biological sciences related fields, it is highly recommended that you pursue your M.Sc. The job opportunities for B.Sc graduates in a highly research oriented field as biotechnology is very less and most students tend to pursue their M.Sc in Biotechnology or a specialized discipline of biotechnology. India is home to some excellent M.Sc programs such as JNU, DU, IISc, TIFR, IITs etc. With an M.Sc degree, most students tend to work in research labs and industries as research assistants. The pay package is also quite less for M.Sc graduates. Since India is still developing, it is highly recommended that you do your M.Sc in a reputed institution for good campus placements and job opportunities. If your university is not reputed, chances of any biotech company coming for placements will be zero.
Many M.Sc students tend to pursue their PhD degrees in Biotechnology or related fields as a PhD degree opens up more avenues both in India and worldwide. A PhD degree will give you the ability to start your own research lab, become a professor or head of the department in universities or be the lead for a team of research scientists.

Hi Veronica,
St. Xavier's College, Kolkata is currently ranked 1st and got 3.77 out of 4 by NAAC in al over India. And it's physics department is also one of the best. With the best infrastructure consisting great faculties, laboratory and all other resources and facilities Department of physics is doing really good in Academics as well as other activities. And we also have M.Sc in Physics which is also in the same department and great scholars are passing out every year. So according to me, SXCKOL will be the best choice for you as B.Sc in Physics is concerned.
I don't know a lot about other colleges. There are many among which you can choose.
Anyway. All the best
