Hi, This field, the careers in it, and the functional areas are just integral in getting a meaningful biotechnology product to market. Biotechnology as a field and its knowledge has applications in many industries, so the specialist professionals can choose to work for a variety of organizations be it government agencies or private companies, regulatory bodies, or clinical laboratories. Biotechnology employers range in size and type from small start-ups to global pharmaceutical leaders There are some extraordinary developments happening in the field, including industrial disease treatment, gene therapy, personalized medicine and even hazardous waste control. But whats most exciting about the industry, is that no matter what you are doing in it, you can truly have an impact on the world around you. In-Demand Biotechnology Careers Biomedical Engineer Biochemist Medical Scientist Biological/Clinical Technician Microbiologist Process Development Scientist Bio-manufacturing Specialists Business Development Manager Director of Product Strategy/Commercialization A solid educational foundation rooted in Science and its related coursework is perhaps the most critical point in making a career. The advanced programs, such as a B.Tech in Biotech or maybe Bachelors/ Masters of Science in Biotechnology, can enable you to go for the chances to explore the many avenues you can take in your career You must look for a degree programme that will give you the opportunity to get hands-on experience by way of internships, live projects, consultancies and OJTs etc. It will help you understand the accountability and responsibility of a real-world company, where its about owning the projects or processes.

Lovely Professional University is a private university. You can get detailed overview from: - https://www.shiksha.com/university/lovely-professional-university-jalandhar-28499. Now coming to placements in comparison to local private universities LPU performs good but is no where near premier institutes like IITs, NITs or BITS. LPU had ok placements for Biotech department. Very few students got placed from biotech department. This is also because the branch has lesser opportunities compared to branches like CSE. Most of them were placed in IT roles. Average package was about Rs 3 LPA. So placement scenario was poor for Biotechat LPU.
