Hi Aspirant,

Hope you are doing great.

I am sharing with you the eligibility criteria and admission process of IIT Kharagpur for MTech in food processing.

Eligibility criteria is that you must have passed Bachelor's Degree in Engineering/Technology/Architecture/M.Sc or equivalent professional degrees (AMIE etc.) and having a valid GATE score. You need to make sure that your GATE marks are above the cut-off marks of your category and GATE paper.

Admission is based on gate score or gate score( 70% weightage) and then a personal interview round. A personal interview is necessary because it tests motivation and aptitude for the Programme, suitability for the department/center, Skills in basic science, engineering, and relevant areas. And one more thing is that the personal interview will be conducted at IIT Kharagpur only.

Hope this helps.

As of today's world, anyone can teach online after completing some basic graduation . Even on YouTube, some people who have just entered into an Undergraduate course, have started teaching their juniors, and able to earn via YouTube ADSense. So, for such online teaching, there is no specific degree required. Even platforms like Unacademy are inviting those (irrespective of your educational qualifications) to teach who have teaching as a passion. Plus since you have done BTech, you can easily teach Class 12 Students or Biology to NEET UG Aspirants.

However, the above mentioned online teaching, has cons as well - you cannot guarantee that you will get many students and you will be earning as per your needs. No doubt, some teachers have become famous by teaching online, but not everyone has been able to achieve the same.

So, I would suggest you to complete your masters (M.Tech) first. Crack GATE with a good rank and take admissions in good institute. After that you can easily get teaching jobs and would be able to teach B.Tech students as well (Remember: A B.Tech graduate cannot teach B.Tech students as per AICTE rule).

Dear Aspirant ,

BSc Agricuture is a 4 year undergraduate programme. You can pursue careers in agricultural practices and their benifits, agribusiness , seed technology ,plant pathology, analysts and research. You can work in  various departments ranging from business prospects of agricultural practices to technical aspects .

Basic average cost of this course throughout India is Rs. 2 to 3 lakhs .

The scope in this field is wide as you know agriculture is our contry's backbone and majority of the population is employed here , so taking up this field you can develop new technologies and take up researches to work for better oppurtunities for the farmers. If salary is your concern that i will list some high and good paying jobs in this sector- Agricultural officer( Rs 8to 14 LPA) , ICAR scientist ( Rs.7 to 14 LPA),Agricultural Analyst( 4.2 LPA to 6LPA) .

Btech in food technology is a 4 year Undergraduate course .It is a reasearch oriented and versatile field were you work from testing flavours and food products to working towards research and developement of a healthy and better quality eating lifestyle .

The basic fee of this course ranges somewhere between Rs 40k to Rs 1 lakh. The admission is merit based and entrance based.

The scope is very wide is since graduates and post graduates from this field are required almost everywhere be it government or private sector. You can work as a food consultant ,Production manager, process engineer and work in Food microbiology centres, Assurance companies , technical sales outlets etc.

So you see the scope is qually good in both the fields and in my opinion both are very interesting fields and either field you choose you wont regret it . Since we know a lot is to be done for our agricultural sector to make them at par with international standards so the scope is good in India . Whereas , food technology is a very promising and prominent field . As we are approaching towards a healthy liftstyle , people are becoming aware and conscious of they eat so there is a need of good food technologists !.

Hope this helps

Thank you

Hello aspirant,

I hope that you are doing absolutely great.

With reference to your above mentioned query, I would like to tell you that all the courses are good in BSc and all of them are available for wide job opportunities in future but it totally depends upon your interest on which course you choose from.

According to my opinion I would suggest you to go with Bsc in Food and technology as it has much wider scope than bsc agriculture and Horticulture in terms of placements, researches as it is a research oriented field, academics and good career opportunities.

Candidates who are interested in plants, agriculture and technology must opt for horticulture science. For those who are unaware about horticulture science, it is the plant science that incorporates science and aesthetics of plants. The course, horticulture science is the science and art of producing edible vegetables, flowers, fruits, herbs, and ornamental plants, improving and commercializing them.

To make it more clear, Horticulture is a sub-part of agriculture which deals with the development of intensively cultivated food and decorative/ornamental plants. Science and art are used extensively in the development and distribution of crops, mainly vegetables, for consumption by masses. The horticulture crops are diverse; they include vegetables, fruits, decorative plants, etc.

WHEREAS

Food technology is a field of science that deals with the techniques involved in the production of food, both organic and inorganic. The techniques of food productions included in the food technology course are production, preservation, processing, quality management, packaging, labelling, and the distribution of food products. It is among the most rapidly expanding areas of science and technology.

Food technology, which is a branch of food processing , is one of the emerging technologies that boost food product quality product availability. Candidates who pursue food technology courses such as B.Tech, M.Tech, B.Sc. or M.Sc can find lucrative job opportunities in domains such as catering, restaurants, food processing companies, and hospitality management.

I hope that this will help.

Hi swara,

In the context of the question you have asked, I would suggest you to think before you make any action. If you are not satisfied with the course or the college then better to leave if you have options available for you. See, doing B.Tech is wonderful as this course open doors to many opportunity in the world and also it helps an individual to focus on the things that builds logic and increases multiple job offers

B.Tech is a very vast course requires practical as well as theoretical knowledge.

Talking about B.Tech in Food technology from a private college. See, there is no difference in private or govt but the fees structure and quality of education is different  you can learn many things without looking for a degree.

Food technology Btech course is good but has some limitations as well. You will be only reserved for job roles like testing and checking quality rather than doing software jobs. No doubt, employment rate is good in food technology but jobs are limited

So it is good but not that as compared to it sector.

Hope this answer helps you.

Thank you and good luck:)

Hello Krishna,

You have not mentioned your Caste Category, so I'm considering it as General Category.

See it is difficult to determine before cut-offs changes from year to year and may depend on many factors.

You must have minimum 60 percentage if you belong to general category and 55 percentage if you belong to reservation category, in Graduation from a recognised Board.

Previous year's cut-off Rank for  M.Tech Food Processing Technology in Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur are given below.

Previous year's GATE cut-offs:

General Category: 741 Cut-off Rank

EWS Category: 567 Cut-off Rank

OBC Category:  688 Cut-off Rank
