A blend of biology and technology, biotechnology offers a rewarding career to those who have interests in application of technology as well as research.
B.Sc. Biotechnology
The demand for professionals in the life sciences field is high in India. This is because the country is an agrarian economy and has a growing population. There is a need for professionals who can improve agricultural practices and develop new medicines.
There are many organizations that are looking for qualified professionals in the life sciences field. Technical colleges are trying to meet the demand, but a large number of students who are engaged in cutting-edge research leave India to complete their research projects.
Biotechnology has been making steady progress in India in the last decade and a half. However, many students who study biotechnology in India tend to move abroad after completing their research. This is because there are more opportunities for research and development in foreign countries.
However, there is still a lot of potential for students who want to stay and work in India. India is becoming an international focal point for the development of biotechnology. There are many areas where biotechnology has grown in India, including agricultural biotechnology, animal husbandry, bioinformatics, biofertilizers, and dairy development. There has also been growth in the areas of bioresource development, plant biology, marine biotechnology, microbiology, and genetic research.
