Hello!

Biotechnology graduates have a vast field of career opportunities depending on their chosen field. India is soon to be a hotspot for Biotech Industry. It is estimated that Biotech sector in India is estimated to grow by 30.46 percent CAGR by 2025 and, India is among the top 12 biotech destinations in the world and ranks third in the Asia-Pacific region . Biotechnology is a promising field that can bring about appreciable changes in agriculture trends, food productions and, healthcare.

. B.Tech (Biotechnology) lays emphasis on the technical aspects of Biotechnology, whereas, B.Sc (Biotechnology) opens door to research in this field. Both B.Tech and B.Sc will have some similar subjects, however, Biotechnology in B.Tech will be centred around Mathematics and Physics, whereas, in B.Sc will be centred around Biology

Career Opportunities for B.Tech Graduates:

Pharmaceutical sector, Biological Sciences, Healthcare, Food Processing Industry, Food and Chemical Industries seek Biotechnology Professionals for handling positions of Production Engineers, Quality Control Analyst, etc.

Career Opportunities for B.Sc Graduates:

Biotechnology is a research-oriented field in which a lot of areas are still to be explored. B.Sc graduates can opt for a career in technical writing, or go for M.Sc and Ph.D to pursue a career in research. With the world’s population to cross 9 billion before 2050, revolutionary reforms are needed in areas food production, medicine and, vaccine. The future rests largely on the shoulders of researchers and scientists in the field of Biotechnology.

All the best!
